Drawing on its operational presence in Fragility, Conflict and Violence (FCV) contexts, the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) has 25 years of experience in youth education programming, combining education and legal expertise to support youth to progress between learning, earning and engagement pathways. Our programme approach aims to support refugee youth to transition from dependency to selfreliance, while contributing to local economies, human capital development and national development objectives. NRC’s experience shows that the hardest-to-reach youth, displaced and refugee youth with the lowest education levels, including young women with limited previous schooling, can be engaged and achieve strong education, and economic inclusion outcomes when operational, and regulatory barriers to skills development and labour market participation are systematically removed.
