Creating Opportunities For Unemployed Youth

Using the name Reinfoke, which means redirect, a group of unemployed youths in Curaçao are getting the necessary guidance to prepare them for a job in a number of businesses. The intent of this program is to create sustainable jobs for young people who have registered for this intensive training. This is based on an agreement signed with a group of participating companies, and the intention is that more employers will follow suit. In 2013, a pilot project was launched and its results provided a good breeding ground to continue on this path. A majority of the young people from that first group who completed the training now have a permanent job.
