Introduction to Green Jobs

This session is a 2-hour interactive workshop introducing the concept of Green Jobs to youth in Asia-Pacific, co-developed by YECAP, Movers Programme and ILO.

The Movers Programme is a regional movement of volunteers who develop SDGs awareness, entrepreneurial mindsets and 21st-century skills by conducting localized training at a grassroots level. The Movers Programme uses a training-of-trainer approach and works with community partners to target harder-to-reach groups and support YECAP's objective to leave no youth behind.

The Movers Workshop consists of a series of activities such as facilitated group and plenary discussions, self-reflection exercises, simulations and short presentations. It also comes with curated pre- and post-workshop resources to get participants more engaged with climate change.
