Last week, our Private Partnerships Leads hosted a roundtable in Bangui with Central African private sector representatives—including telecoms, consultancy agencies, construction firms, HR agencies—and the EU. The discussion focused on understanding the business landscape and creating market-based solutions for host communities, returnees, refugees, and internally displaced persons, especially through opportunities in the agriculture sector. The meeting also discussed issues around financing, tax incentives, and capacity building. They committed to increased engagement and expanding the network to co-create more breakthrough opportunities for displaced people in Central Africa. ———————————————— La semaine dernière, nos responsables des partenariats privés ont organisé une table ronde à Bangui avec des représentants du secteur privé centrafricain, incluant des entreprises de télécommunications, des bureaux d’études, des sociétés de construction, des agences RH, ainsi que l’Union Européenne.

Few refugee livelihood initiatives are subjected to thorough evaluation. Findings from other populations can be instructive, but the impact may vary greatly for refugees. In collaboration with our partner, the Center for Global Development (CGD) and Principal Investigators, we conducted a randomized controlled trial on livelihoods in Kampala, Uganda. Initially, we conducted a comprehensive review of data on wage and self-employment interventions in low- and middle-income nations. Based on this review and feedback from various stakeholders, we chose to test cash awards and diverse networking initiatives with a sample of approximately 100 individuals, as outlined in the paper. This text elaborates on the pilot design and the insights gained, leading to the decision to scale the study to involve 2,600 participants. We are excited to present the research design and intervention that emerged from cash grants and peer groups with a mentor and three mentees that vary by nationality, gender, and group-level incentives. We hope that sharing our process and evidence base will be helpful for practitioners and researchers implementing similar projects. Preliminary results from the randomized controlled trial are expected in May 2024. We are grateful to the Center for Global Development (CGD) and the contributing authors for the tremendous work that went into producing the paper. We also thank the International Rescue Committee and Re:BUiLD teams for providing valuable feedback throughout this process. Thank you, to the IKEA Foundation, for your role as a partner and funder of the Re:BUiLD Program.

Despite the high number of refugees in need of employment, accessing decent work remains a significant challenge. On this #WorldRefugeeDay, we spotlight successful models and practices from the International Labour Organization on "Employment and Decent Work in Refugee and Other Forced Displacement Contexts." In refugee contexts, decent work is key to restoring dignity, reducing aid dependence, and fostering self-reliance. The ILO defines decent work as productive employment that delivers fair income, security, social protection, and equal opportunities for all. Here are some effective practices for development practitioners working in these contexts: Skills Development and Vocational Training 🛠️: Enhancing employability through targeted skills development and vocational training is crucial. Recognizing prior learning and improving core skills allow refugees to adapt to new job markets, benefiting both them and local economies. Employment-Intensive Investment Programs 💼: Integrating labour-based infrastructure projects into long-term economic planning ensures sustainable development. These programs not only provide immediate job opportunities but also create lasting benefits for communities, supporting both refugees and host populations. Entrepreneurship Promotion and Business Development Services 🌟: Supporting refugee entrepreneurs with business development services fosters self-reliance and economic integration. Training, mentorship, and access to resources enable refugees to start and grow businesses, contributing to local economies and reducing aid dependence. Local Economic Development and Value Chain Development 📈: Integrating refugees into value chains and focusing on local economic development builds inclusive economies. This approach ensures refugees can participate meaningfully in economic activities, benefiting both themselves and host communities. By implementing these models and practices, practitioners can significantly enhance the employment prospects and quality of life for refugees, promoting resilience and self-reliance. 🌍 https://lnkd.in/dUaG2EGJ #WorldRefugeeDay #DecentWork #Employment #RefugeeSupport #ILO #EconomicEmpowerment #SocialJustice #InclusiveWork

[Journée mondiale des réfugiés] 120 millions ! C’est le nombre de #réfugiés dans le monde en 2024, un niveau record. L’#insertion professionnelle des réfugiés doit être une priorité. C’est ce qui ressort de notre étude réalisée pour The Human Safety Net France, la fondation de Generali France, qui se base sur les travaux de recherche les plus récents et l’audition d’acteurs de terrain. ▶ Elle rappelle que l’accueil des réfugiés et leur accès à l’emploi est un droit ▶ Les réfugiés offrent un potentiel considérable aux pays d'accueil, en termes de compétences et de diversité, à condition de leur proposer un accompagnement adapté Notre étude identifie des facteurs clés de succès des programmes d’accompagnement visant à favoriser le retour à l’emploi des personnes réfugiées : 1️⃣ Proposer un accompagnement personnalisé à chaque individu prenant en compte ses difficultés sociales, administratives, sanitaires, etc. 2️⃣ Valoriser et reconnaître les compétences des réfugiés pour éviter toute forme de #déclassement 3️⃣ Porter une attention particulière aux #femmes souvent invisibilisées dans les politiques d’accueil et sous-représentées dans les dispositifs de retour à l’emploi 4️⃣ Mobiliser les #entreprises pour permettre aux réfugiés d’accéder à des emplois de qualité et bénéficier de réelles perspectives d’évolution professionnelle.
