General Situation

Indonesia has a population of 237 million, 19% are youth aged between

15-24 years, which in absolute figures is the world’s 4th largest youth

population (2010).

The youth unemployment rate stands at 22%, 5 times higher than adult

unemployment rate and 5 times higher than the global average

(2012).

Among the youth identified by Plan Indonesia within the targeted areas

the unemployment rate stands at 36% (2010). Young women are

overrepresented in this at a 1:2.4 (male to female ratio).

39% of the youth within these areas live in a situation of extreme

poverty (2010).

Gender Issues:

• Roles and responsibilities

• Access to and control over assets

• Decision making

• Needs and priorities

Looking at these issues, can you think of practical

examples of how this can be different for young men and

women?

Goal

Youth, particularly young women, are economically

empowered in Plan target areas

Objectives

1. Target 4.400 youth (at least 80% being young

women) from two regions in Indonesia to benefit

from diversified market-led vocational and

entrepreneurship training and job placement

support (6 months) for (self) employment.

2. Ensure at least 3.203 of the graduated youth are

employed within three months after completion or

are self-employed within six months after completion

and report a significant rise of at least 50% in income

within six months after completion (80%).

Decent Work Agenda ILO !

http://www.ilo.org/global/about-the-ilo/decent-work-agenda/lang--en/index.htm

YEE is a comprehensive approach to labour

market entry. It is a one stop shop for youth

looking for work either as wage earner

(employee) or as self-employed entrepreneur.

YEE consists of several activities which are

delivered integrated as shown in the YEE

Pathway.

Recruitment and registration of youth

Pre-employment training

Following this, youth will undertake some career testing and exposure to recommended occupations or businesses based on previous research

With coaching from partner, the youth will choose whether to take an entrepreneur track or a TVET/employment track

The youth who choose an employment track will undergo a training to qualify for specific jobs at a previously selected employer(competency based training)

The youth who choose an entrepreneur track will participate in an entrepreneurship training designed to give them the needed skills to open and run a Microenterprise (value chain analysis).

The financial services in form of savings and loans will be used to establish a microenterprise and new entrepreneur will continue to receive business development services and advice for the first year of their operations.

The financial services will be provided using Grameen bank’s method.

Prior to registration, selection of the target group is based on score measured by the PPI (Poverty Out Progress of Index).

• Participation of youth in the YEE project is

important as the program is for them. How do

you think Plan can organize active youth

participation?

• Involving adolescent girls and young women is

often even more difficult. What do you think is

needed to have young women take part in the

project?

Wat is lobby?

Wat wil Plan Nederland?

Welke stappen onderneemt plan om dit te

bereiken?

De rol van jongeren.
