Youth Employment: 240 Graduates Targeted by a Workplace Readiness Program

Se Former Autrement Africa launched the first edition of “Bienvenue dans le monde du travail” on October 27, 2026, to prepare 240 Ivorian graduates for workplace expectations. Running through 2026–2027 under the sponsorship of the ministry responsible for Employment and Social Protection, the program includes participant selection, training and support toward professional integration. Training will cover communication, workplace conduct, practical skills, collaboration and adaptability in three six-week sequences. Founder and director Stéphanie Tshibanda Baros stressed that the program does not guarantee a job, as hiring decisions remain with employers.
