The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has approved a grant of 43.9 million US dollars to expand support for more than two hundred thousand vulnerable youth between the ages of 15 and 35 in Haiti.
The programme, according to the bank, is designed to reduce the risk of violence and exclusion by creating jobs and pathways to reintegration.
The IDB said it combines paid community work with on-the-job training and entrepreneurship support.
According to the IDB, more than eight thousand young people will participate in the Cash-for-Work Plus project.
The Washington-based financial institution added that ten multipurpose youth centres will be rehabilitated and activated across the country.
