Strengths
What this intervention is particularly good at in supporting refugee and host communities
Adaptable to various applications
Job Search Clubs (JSCs) are highly adaptable and open to sector-specific applications as seen in the case of the digital economy and green economy, where young people received tailored guidance on how to search and apply for jobs in those sectors.
Enhances national strategy
The JSC methodology can be used as a tool to deliver opportunities for national strategies and development plans, particularly on youth employment. This is also a measure to reinforce national ownership of the methodology, particularly if it can demonstrate results against national development plans. It can also help young people target their job search in sectors that the government has prioritized for job creation.
Supports social cohesion
JSC can reinforce social cohesion when approached through a conflict-sensitive lens as the clubs bring forcibly displaced and host community participants together to work on a common challenge and offer mutual support.
