Skills for Trade and Economic Diversification (STED) is a sector level methodology developed by the ILO to provide guidance for the integration of skills development in sectoral policies. It is designed to help identify skills needed to support growth and decent employment creation in sectors that have the potential to increase exports and contribute to economic diversification. STED takes a forward-looking perspective, anticipating a sector’s development and growth opportunities based on its global competitive position and market development. Together with an analysis of current skills supply and demand, this provides an outlook on existing and future skills shortages. Thus, STED supports the development of skills for which there is demand in the labour market and helps to avoid skills mismatches.
The Malawi National Export Strategy recommends application of Skills for Trade and Economic Diversification methodology to help identify the skill sets and the volumes of skills required to allow the productive base to emerge and to keep up with demands on consumption and imports.
The STED analytical research has already been undertaken in at least two sectors in Malawi, namely; Oilseeds and Horticulture.
Overall Objective
The overall objective of the workshop is to enhance the capacity of national and sectoral practitioners, social partners, training providers and academic Institutions to:-
Analyse and anticipate skill needs in export-oriented sectors that have growth potential, and
Design effective skills response strategies that contribute to higher and more diversified exports with more and better job creation.
Target Audience
The training content is addressed to a mixed audience including:
Representatives of Government Ministries and apex organizations
Representatives of Workers’ and Employers’ Organizations and representatives of sectoral organizations and Associations
Representatives of training Institutions and Universities and research Institutions. 13-17 June 2016, Sunbird Nkopola, Mangochi, Malawi Training workshop on ″Skills for Trade and Economic Diversification″ methodology<br>
