Green skills for rural youth in South East Asia

Plan International (referred to in this document as Plan) commissioned this research report in order to investigate the potential for green skills training in four countries: Indonesia, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam. The research has sought to identify the existing provision of green skills training in each of these countries and the sectors in which green skills gaps are likely to occur in the future. In each country, the existing provision of Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) and Youth Economic Empowerment/Solutions (YEE/S) programmes were considered; the research also aimed to identify ways in which these programmes could be integrated to ensure that the knowledge and skills required for climate change adaptation (whether upskilling or seeking alternate livelihoods) were made accessible to the young people who need it most.
