Moreover over 15 000 Syrian Armenians sought for refuge in Armenia. Poverty and social exclusion still affect a significant part of the population and displaced persons in particular - especially due to their disrupted biographies, trauma, inadequate housing and lack of access to employment, property and basic services. ◄ Objective The programme aims at improving the economic and social participation of vulnerable displaced and local population through enhancing capacities for employability and entrepreneurship as well as for community development and improved public and private services. ◄ Our approach ◄ Activities The programme activities build around four fields of action: 1. strengthening capacities of the public sector for providing improved services; 2. empowering and enhancing qualifications of beneficiaries, including employability, career orientation, job-matching, start-up consultancy and vocational qualification; 3. developing the local private sector to increase the demand for employment; 4. encouraging participation and responsiveness to local needs and strengthening social cohesion. Women and youth empowerment are key to all measures. Therefore, EPIC implements gender transformative activities and enables beneficiaries to pursue own aims. EPIC improves the employability of disadvantaged groups and promotes social cohesion by applying a comprehensive approach of innovative and inclusive practices. All measures respond to the needs of vulnerable displaced and local population and include, besides relevant technical trainings, also psycho-social interventions. To allow for full participation in society, EPIC opts for a multidimensional approach that promotes economic AND social participation alike. To achieve that aim, EPIC partners with public and private actors and promotes local civil society activities. EPIC applies a grassroots and comprehensive approach that combines employability measures, business development and community. To strengthen the self-reliance of beneficiaries, EPIC offers psychosocial and individual empowerment measures. Advising state partners and service providers improves services for vulnerable population.

Taestensen, Sonia Fontaine Editing: Tea Melanashvili Design & Layout: Batash Studio Ltd Printed by: Cezanne Ltd December 2019 EPIC in Azerbaijan applies a tailored capacity development approach for creating new or improving existing employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for vulnerable displaced and local population in rural districts. In five-month training courses – so called ‘Employment and Entrepreneurship Shuttles’ – led by trained coaches up to 25 participants develop their communication skills, self-esteem, market knowledge and professional competences and increase their opportunities to find employment or starting an own business. Further, shuttles provide the participants a space for peersupport, empathy, solidarity and motivation, to experience team spirit and for personal and professional development. More importantly, shuttles combined with technical and vocational trainings tailored to the local market demand significantly improve beneficiaries’ employability and chances for a successful start-up. Out of 42 beneficiaries of the first round of employment shuttles, 20 have already found employment while additional technical training measures are offered to the remaining participants. ◄ Strengthening capacities of the public sector We support the State Committee for Affairs of Refugees and Internally Displaced People and the Social Fund for the Development of IDPs at national and local level in providing services to vulnerable displaced persons. This partnership also promotes the exchange of practices among the public actors at the regional level. ◄ Enhancing employability of displaced persons and local population To empower, develop skills and economic participation of beneficiaries, coaches effectively apply innovative employability measures based on Action Against Hunger’s shuttle method and in combination with nonformal vocational education and life-skills trainings. ◄ Developing business opportunities for displaced persons and local communities We offer competency-based technical and financial literacy trainings, practical field consultancy, advice on access to finance and taxation and provide small in-kind grants to small business supporting the development of the local value-chains. ◄ Promoting social cohesion We are empowering IDP and local communities, specifically youth and women to create opportunities for participation, positive development and joint social initiatives. Community development experts establish community centers providing safe and free space to rural youth and women to engage in social mobilisation and various community activities.
