The first day of the workshop covered important issues associated with gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands.

The importance of incorporating gender equality and social inclusion into all task elements was also discussed.

ACWA is made possible thanks to the assistance of the Green Climate

Fund, with the job co-financed by the Government of the Republic of the Marshall Islands

. The Marshall Islands: Skills Training and Vocational Education Project Examines the performance of the project and highlights lessons. Provides inputs to 2 wider assessments- the local evaluation of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the unique assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic attainment and scarcity of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of standard education, absence of access to education in the external islands, and weaknesses in skills training and the occupation and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high unemployment because of constrained economic sector growth and government downsizing. Joblessness was specifically high amongst the youth and ladies in the outer islands. Ideal regional competent personnel for existing job vacancies

were not available, thus the importation of properly knowledgeable foreign workers. Thus, there was a mismatch in between offered jobs and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions provided the initiative for the Government

of the Marshall Islands to focus on technical and professional education training reforms. In 2000, ADB approved a loan for $9.1 million to improve skills training to provide well-trained employees needed for continual financial and social advancement. This was to be accomplished through an integrated nationwide skills training system. The job consisted of 4 components: development of a career awareness program, skills training improvement, improved skills training opportunities for females and youth, and institutional strengthening. The expected result was increased income-generating chances and employment for trainees, particularly ladies and youth in the external islands. Overall, the project was ranked unsuccessful. Limited progress was achieved in making the project responsive to the requirements of its beneficiaries and private-sector companies. The long-standing weak point of poor numeracy and literacy proficiencies

amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts going into college or going to voc-tech education could be partly attributed to the poor quality of fundamental education. The project was supply-driven and could not develop a strong linkage with private sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and occupation education training system has actually stayed essentially the very same after job completion. The research study advanced that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's

dedication to establishing a committed labour info system to link technical and vocational education training program offerings with industry demand. Although the task established a labour market details system, in the absence of in-house personnel ability at the National Training Council, it was not fully operational.
