Paragraph text
In the Arab region, the lack of appropriately skilled young workers is reported to account for the prevailing unemployment among youth, especially educated youth. The Regional Expert Meeting for the Arab States, organized in Muscat, Oman, in March 2012 in view of the Third International Congress on Technical and Vocational Education and Training, mentioned above, addressed the major challenges facing Arab States in the next decade for creating employment for the millions of people entering the labour market, and ensuring that job-seekers have both qualifications and appropriate skills and competences, which are currently lacking.
