The Equity Policy, so what? The intentions of equity can be marred by a lack of pro-poor policy and uninformed processes diminishing meaningful outcomes.
Vulnerability, Complexity, and Being ‘Equity’ NEET
Many organisations find opportunity and value in offering NEETs training to increase their employability and simultaneously achieve organisational equity targets.
The Equity Policy is more loaded than ‘evening the turf’
Absorbing NEETs into organised economic systems is important for enhancing their career and psychological development. When dealing with vulnerable youth, generational poverty impacts requires organisations to develop sensitivities where previously they enforced expectations.
The Equity Policy: Navigation for Pro-poor Outcomes
NEET inclusion is an economic development priority. Education and training clients often request specific procedure input addressing attraction, attrition and career development services. They seldom have time to sift through the gamut of literature and statistics for direction.
