ILO IYB Entrepreneurship Training Consultant Kenya

Contexte

The ILO’s M4I programme is supporting the development of inclusive labour market systems for refugees and vulnerable host communities in Kenya, mainly targeting the beauty and construction sectors within urban labour markets including Nairobi, Mombasa, and Nakuru. Many urban refugees and other vulnerable workers remain trapped in informal, low-income markets due to legal, social and geographic barriers.

The assignment aims to engage an ILO-certified SIYB Master Trainer to assist with the adaptation and phased implementation of IYB-based entrepreneurship training system under the M4I, involving implementing a full ToT cycle of IYB with selected partners.
