New World Bank funded project to help unemployed people

Jan 03, 2013

ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, CMC – The Antigua and Barbuda government says it is designing a project that offers temporary economic relief to unemployed people in the country.
Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer said that the three year project, which is being established with technical and financial assistance from the World Bank, will benefit at least 1,200 low-income unemployed people between the ages 17 and 50.
“The programme has two complementary components - a training component and a temporary employment component. It will include activities that enhance their skills through vocational and life-skills training and provide an allowance as a form of income support.”
