National Employment Strategy 2021-2025

March 2021

The vision of this strategy is to “achieve full, productive, and freely chosen employment for jobseekers, particularly youth and women." The NES 2021-2025 will achieve this vision through the following objectives:

  1. Strengthen the labour market governance and develop active labour market policies and programmes, ensuring stronger linkages and more efficient alignment between supply and demand sides.
  2. Improve alignment of education and higher education with labour market needs.
  3. Strengthen the private sector's resilience and capability of growing productivity and creating decent employment opportunities to jobseekers, particularly youth and women.
