Scaling Youth Work Readiness Skills and Transition to Work in Senegal’s Schools: A Strategy and Cost Analysis

APTE-Senegal focuses on building work readiness skills and transition to work opportunities to prepare youth for employment and self-employment in a way that is sustainable at national scale. As part of overall project design, EDC’s Work Ready Now (WRN) approach was adapted to the country context and built to be fully scalable so that ultimately the government would take on ownership and sustainability. EDC started a cost analysis to help the Government of Senegal answer important strategic and budget-related questions in preparation for assuming institutionalization of WRN at national scale.
