Experiences of work training for young people in Latin America

The deregulation of the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean has had repercussions on work with the labour market becoming more segmented. A sizeable part of the population is becoming increasing vulnerable and a new level of training is required to maintain employability. The youth sector of the labour pool are up against the complexities and obstacles of the segmented labour market to a greater extent than the rest of the population. This paper looks at various regional efforts against segmentation and the lessons learned from these.
