Gender Equality, Climate Change, Disaster Risk Reduction and Water Safety Management has actually recently occurred at the University of the South Pacific's campus in Majuro, the Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This crucial training was arranged by the United Nations Development Programme( UNDP )Pacific Office through the Addressing Climate Vulnerability in the Water Sector(ACWA) project. The week-long capacity-building training aimed to empower women and youth with the knowledge and practices needed for climate-resilient water safety management in the

Republic of the Marshall Islands(RMI ). This training enhances a commitment to enhancing RMI's water security and neighborhood resilience against environment modification impacts, particularly ladies

The first day of the workshop covered important problems related to gender equality, human rights, and public health within the Marshall Islands.

The significance of incorporating gender equality and social addition into all job elements was also discussed.

ACWA is enabled thanks to the support 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 two broader assessments- the regional assessment of ADB assistance for the Pacific and the special assessment research study on Millennium Development Goals. The low academic attainment and shortage of Marshallese skilled workers were largely due to the poor quality of basic education, lack of access to education in the external islands, and weak points in skills training and the vocational and technical education system.

These supported an economy marked by high joblessness because of constrained private sector development and federal government downsizing. Unemployment was particularly high amongst the youth and women in the external islands. Appropriate local experienced personnel for existing task vacancies

were not available, for this reason the importation of appropriately competent foreign employees. Thus, there was a mismatch in between offered tasks and abilities of the Marshallese labour force. These conditions supplied the initiative for the Government

of the Marshall Islands to prioritize technical and vocational education training reforms. In 2000, ADB authorized a loan for $9.1 million to improve abilities training to supply trained workers needed for continual economic and social development. This was to be achieved through an integrated nationwide abilities training system. The job included four elements: development of a profession awareness program, skills training enhancement, boosted skills training opportunities for women and youth, and institutional fortifying. The expected result was increased income-generating opportunities and employment for students, particularly females and youth in the outer islands. In general, the project was ranked not successful. Minimal development was accomplished in making the project responsive to the requirements of its recipients and private-sector companies. The long-standing weakness of bad numeracy and literacy proficiencies

amongst public primary and secondary school graduates and dropouts getting in college or attending voc-tech education could be partially attributed to the poor quality of basic education. The task was supply-driven and might not establish a strong linkage with economic sector requirements or align its activities with the requirements of the labour market. The status of the technical and occupation education training system has stayed fundamentally the very same after task completion. The study put forward that ADB could encourage the Government of the Marshall Islands, through consultation and policy dialogue, to follow through on the federal government's

commitment to developing a committed labour details system to connect technical and professional education training program offerings with industry need. Although the project established a labour market info system, in the lack of internal staff capability at the National Training Council, it was not completely functional.
