| This report, which is aimed mainly at policy makers, is the synthesis of three case studies conducted in the Philippines, Thailand and Viet Nam and aims to enhance understanding on training, employment opportunities and challenge, and the rural youth training.
The findings from the three country studies suggest that there is a need for enhanced policy coordination to address limited human and financial resources, particularly in terms of reaching the local and community levels. This is also to allow broad-based participation in the efforts to improve employment and training prospects of the rural youth.
