UNESCO seeks to build peace through international cooperation in Education, the Sciences and Culture

UNESCO seeks to build peace through international cooperation in Education, the Sciences and Culture. UNESCO's programmes contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals in Agenda 2030 adopted by the UN General Assembly in 2015. This call for Implementation Partners relates to the UNESCO project Skills-Based Literacy (SBL) Programme.

The objective of this Call for Proposals is to empower Afghan youth and adults aged 15 and above, who have previously been excluded from education, by providing them with SBL training. The programme will equip learners with essential literacy skills integrated with practical livelihood skills, fostering their ability to be productive, healthy, and responsible citizens prepared to contribute to community welfare and secure viable employment in the national labour market, particularly focusing on women and girls who face significant barriers to education and economic participation.
