Communication and Outreach program
Communication and Outreach program addresses the gap that exists in Rwanda regarding access to relevant employment information. Through a comprehensive national data gathering process Mapping aims to gather and profile information from both Rwandan youth groups and potential donor/support groups and present an online data base of all, with cross referencing search tools. This will provide a forum for research, communication and information dissemination. Specific outputs such as a recruitment website and a job desk has been set up and used as tools to practically address unemployment amongst profiled youths.
YES Rwanda recognizes the socioeconomic diversity of the Rwandan Youth, and the related need for an all encompassing community and outreach program to ensure inclusiveness.
Description and purpose of the job desk
Access to employment by Rwandan youth has been an uphill task for many years now due to employers who do not know where to recruit qualified, motivated and well trained employees. Inadequacy of information for job vacancies has also been another setback as well as employers’ inability to trace the quality of persons that they require.
Establishment of the job desk is a strategy by YES Rwanda to promote accessibility to employment for unemployed young professionals in the country.
The services are targeted at all unemployed young professionals from all working disciplines who are unable to find jobs especially in their areas of qualifications.
