The project is part of the Socio-Ecological and Economic Transformation in Selected Rural Value Chains (EET) project in Sierra Leone and promotes inclusive economic growth in the cassava, coffee/cocoa, vegetable and poultry value chains, with a focus on women- and youth-led enterprises. The project will implement the TVET and women's economic empowerment (WEE) components (EET Outputs 3–5) in close coordination with the GIZ project team. On the TVET side, this means strengthening the Government Technical Institutes in Kabala, Koidu (Kono) and Mattru Jong. The work covers labour-market analysis, Sector Skills Councils and private-sector linkages, new competency-based agricultural TVET courses and certification, training of trainers for teachers, and a model farm in Mattru Jong as a centre of excellence. On the WEE side, the project will strengthen women's representative bodies and advocacy on women's economic rights, including the Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment (GEWE) Act.
