A cobblestone production training course offered through a public TVET centre at county level specifically targeted young people. Students on the course got to participate in EIIP and put their learning into practice. In Iraq, EIIP was used to improve the physical infrastructure of TVET centres poriving TVET students  with the opportunity to apply their skills in practice in solar panel installation, painting, plastering, gardening and masonry.
• In Iraq, EIIP work rehabilitated the Zaha Hadid Youth Centre in Ninawa. The physical reconstruction was linked with institutional capacity building (in collaboration with UNICEF) to enable the rollout of training programmes for youth.
