Skills for work and life
UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre for TVET
Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) empowers youth and adults with the skills, knowledge and values to access decent work and to shape inclusive and sustainable societies. The UNESCO-UNEVOC International Centre for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) supports Member States in strengthening and upgrading their TVET systems.
The UNEVOC Network
The UNEVOC Network is UNESCO’s global network of TVET institutions, called UNEVOC Centres. Through international collaboration and knowledge exchange, UNEVOC Network members enhance the quality of TVET teaching and learning opportunities.
Strategy for TVET 2022-2029
TVET connects education and the world of work, unlocking the potential of young people and adults for a brighter future. Yet, it is estimated that 267 million young people are not in employment, education or training.
The UNESCO TVET Strategy has vision to transform TVET for successful and just transitions during the period 2022 to 2029, by promoting skills development for empowerment, productive employment and decent work, and facilitating the transition to more digital, green and inclusive economies and societies.
