The MISP II aims at initiating a process of sustainable income generation for vulnerable households in Erbil and Sulaymaniyah Governorates of KRG through increased employment and self-employment of household members (beneficiaries). The vehicle for this desired development is technical and business management training of selected beneficiaries undertaken by a number of project trained trainers (TOTs) and a toolkit programme supporting the trainees (TOBs) in performing their acquired skills as employed or self-employed.
TOT training has in most cases taken place in other Arabic countries and Europe. The TOB training has been undertaken in 18 local VTCs. These VTCs have been strengthened by the project through provision of training equipment and materials. 63 TOTs and 2510 TOBs have been trained.
15 Production Groups (PG) have been established and supported with machinery, equipment and training. The PG component of the project aims to revitalize the productive capacity of selected agro and micro enterprises, generate employment for TOBs, deliver needed services to the surrounding communities, and to act as models for other workshop operators and entrepreneurs.
Main project stakeholders are MOI and MOA as well as project involved MOA District and Sub-District Directorates and their extension services. MOI has no representation at District and Sub-District levels.
