Context

The SE4JOBS Project was launched in 2014 as a collaborative effort of six GIZ projects: the regional project RE-ACTIVATE and five sector projects dealing with different aspects of sustainable energy and socio-economic development. It also involves distinguished external experts and key partners of GIZ, especially from <g class="gr_ gr_20 gr-alert gr_spell undefined ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace" id="20" data-gr-id="20">adelphi</g> and the FFU. RE-ACTIVATE serves as a coordinator and "secretariat" of SE4JOBS.

The SE4JOBS Project aims to federate and integrate available worldwide experience on how to strengthen the link between local socio-economic development and sustainable energy technologies. The focus is on local employment and income creation. The goal is to provide a set of specific, application-oriented instruments and recommendations helping policy makers and practitioners to develop better policy approaches and institutional settings for an optimal valorization of the socio-economic effects of sustainable energy technologies

In the first phase, the SE4JOBS project targets three countries, namely Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco. The development of the Toolbox was supported by workshops in Rabat, Tunis, Eschborn/Germany, and Beirut in 2015. The workshop in Cairo was another milestone on this way.

Objective of the Training Workshop

  • Introduction to the Toolbox: aim, content and structure
  • Application  of  the  toolbox  to  the  case  of  Egypt:  identification  and  assessment  of  key questions and challenges for a cost-effective and quality-based roll-out of sustainable energy
  • Collection  of  insights  and  recommendations  on  how  to  harness  Egypt’s  job  and  <g class="gr_ gr_23 gr-alert gr_spell undefined ContextualSpelling ins-del multiReplace" id="23" data-gr-id="23">valuepotential</g> in the field of sustainable energy
  • Inform  the  development  of  an  “<g class="gr_ gr_22 gr-alert gr_gramm undefined Grammar multiReplace" id="22" data-gr-id="22">option</g>  paper”  that  will  offer  possible  pathways  for strengthening the socio-economic benefits of sustainable energy in the country
