The micro-projects competition for gender and social equity groups in the skills training system and retraining of unemployed people has been launched. The projects will be implemented in 2007-08 in all three project pilot regions.

The micro-projects proposals have to offer models, effective instruments or other informational, program and methodological mechanisms for gender and social equity concept implementation in skills training. These projects will initiate active participation of representatives of gender and special needs groups in the skills training system.
