I am into the last two weeks of my VSO placement, construction skills course curriculum design targeting trainees from the unemployed in UB. So a couple of parting photos. Above shows John Larsen, our international consultant from Australia on a site visit with Selenge. John has given great support to the project on his month long visits.
The project has so far trained over 450 young adults in various basic construction skills . Our target is 2100 trained construction workers by the end of the project. All the training courses include three months on the job training.
30% of the trainees are young women which in any other country would be remarkable, but here in Mongolia it is the norm for men and women to be involved in all types of work. The gender balance issue in the project's terms of reference was in fact a non issue!!!
