The ILO is currently implementing employment-intensive infrastructure recovery works in the city of Aleppo in response to the devastating impacts of the earthquakes in February 2023. The employment-intensive approach has the dual objective of creating decent job opportunities including training opportunities to the vulnerable communities that lost their livelihood means as well as of restoring basic community infrastructures to enhance their access to basic services.
Beyond the earthquake response, the ILO intends to replicate its employment-intensive approach in Syria and launch a new project in November 2023 in underserved rural Aleppo, namely in Al Khafsa and Maskanah, with the aim to addressing the incapacitating impact of winter conditions on underserved communities in rural Aleppo and enhance their resilience. This will be achieved through the survey, clearance, and rehabilitation of critical road arteries, to allow access to basic services and livelihood opportunities.
The project will be implemented through the provision of income generating opportunities for communities to enable them to secure their basic livelihood needs, enhance their resilience through skills and employability development through both theoretical and on-the-job apprenticeship programmes. The rehabilitation of the critical roads will further allow for humanitarian access to the communities and commercial activities along the agricultural value chains. At the core of the employment-intensive infrastructure works is the promotion of the Decent Work Agenda.
The incumbent will be responsible for the community sensitization, design of the programme and budget, implementation and monitoring of activities, as well as the evaluation of the interventions.
