|GBE project description=The project improves the employment prospects of Senegalese youth, by (1) providing vocational training in solar energy technologies; (2) facilitating the professional integration of the trained technicians in activities related to solar PV energy and finally, (3) supporting the beneficiary women in the development of income-generating activities related to agro-ecology. The project’s activities to achieve these results are hands-on trainings for future solar technicians with a focus on solar pumping, coaching to integrate newly trained youths into employment and creating links between solar water pumping and farming groups using agro-ecology. Specifically the solar technicians are selected from neighbouring communities and trained with a curric�ulum of 24 modules in which they learn the basics of solar installations. They then receive information about starting a solar business and are supported through developing a business plan and follow-up training by accredited train�ers. Last but not least, some newly trained technicians can apply their knowledge by installing solar water pumps at agro-ecology groups that are supported by AFAFA.

The project achieves its objectives through a holistic ap�proach combining vocational training, assistance in finding employment and opportunities for applying their acquired knowledge in the field. By including business development,
the project ensures that the technicians can start a career not only as employees but also self-employed. In addition, the project has a strong focus on gender equality. Women gain additional knowledge through training in agro-ecology, and are direct beneficiaries via the use of solar energy in the field.
