The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) in Côte d'Ivoire, in partnership with the Ivorian government, wishes to implement a digital job creation project for youth. This project aims to support the government's commitment and efforts to combat youth unemployment and underemployment by promoting their access to work opportunities resulting from the gradual and widespread integration of digital technologies into its economy.
This project will help accelerate rural transformation and increase the capacity of vulnerable and marginalized youth across the country to benefit more equitably and quickly from opportunities related to the adoption of digital technologies. It will promote access to additional income for unemployed youth living in rural and urban areas, enabling them to improve their level of food security, while contributing to the development of national human capital and the adaptation of the national labor market to the changing global economy.
