About the project
UNICEF Azerbaijan, DOST Agency and the State Employment Agency, has jointly initiated the implementation of the "Supporting the Socio-Economic Activity of Youth with Disabilities" project since November 2023. The aim of the project is to support the successful transition of youth with disabilities into the workforce by enhancing their essential skills and abilities.
Within the framework of the initiative launched under the Student Acceleration Program (SAP), selected youth will develop necessary skills and capabilities for career readiness, personal development, social-emotional well-being, digital literacy, and transitioning into the workforce. Collaboration with both government and private institutions will be established in this regard. Additionally, activities will be implemented to change stereotypes that hinder the successful integration of persons with disabilities into society as a result of the project.
