Peer-to-peer Cooperation With Iraqi Governorate – Basra
under the Programme
‘Supporting Recovery and Stability in Iraq through Local Development’
Funded by the European Union and Implemented by UNDP
Collaboration between Governorate of Basra and Slovenian partners is focused on creation of employment opportunities for youth and knowledge sharing. Empowerment of local government is crucial in providing effective and transparent public services. Slovenian municipalities are sharing their lessons learnt in providing public services related to the topic, while consortium partners will work with Basra Governorate in exploring models and mechanisms of capacity building that will further help provide brighter future for Basra`s youth.
Apart from capacity building training, educational videos were created. They are going to be used as a training tool for project participants from Basra, who will later help creating youth employment opportunities. The focus of the training videos are good practices from Slovenia in the field of employment, with special focus on youth and women. The videos are mirroring the exact needs of Basra governorate, which were identified throughout the project activities.
Learning, sharing knowledge and experiences, involving local youth.
