This infographic highlights the impacts of the Empleando Futuros project as of January 2020.

The goal of Empleando Futuros is to provide realistic and sustainable opportunities for youth employment, thereby increasing the protective factors or reducing risk factors for at-risk youth in Honduras’s high-crime urban areas. To achieve this goal, Empleando Futuros works toward three results:

1. train 7,500 youth in vulnerable areas of Honduras and insert 3,750 into the labor market;

2. strengthen the capacity of the Honduran National Institute for Professional Training (INFOP) to provide quality services and align its training services with the needs of the private sector;

3. train 400 youth who have been in conflict with the law and insert 160 of them into the workforce or self-employment.
