Tunisia has initiated "CAP Emploi," a significant program backed by the African Development Bank, designed to bolster youth employment. The initiative, detailed by program coordinator Aรฏda Zouari, represents a strategic effort to convert existing skills, entrepreneurial drive, and informal economic activities into sustainable job opportunities.

With a budget of 90 million euros, "CAP Emploi" is structured to align with Tunisia's national sector plan for 2024-2027. This program aims to foster economic growth by providing a framework for young Tunisians to develop their capabilities and formalize their ventures, thereby contributing to a more robust and diversified economy.

The program's focus on transforming informal sectors and enhancing entrepreneurial activities underscores a commitment to creating lasting economic value. By bridging the gap between existing potential and formal economic structures, "CAP Emploi" seeks to empower a new generation of Tunisian workers and entrepreneurs.

This initiative is part of the sector plan 2024-2027.
