Pathways to Jobs in Iraq
Promoting Employment Opportunities and Fostering Entrepreneurship Across Iraq
The upcoming conference will bring together influential leaders from the public, private, and non-governmental sectors to address the pressing challenges and opportunities related to labour demand, economic transformation, entrepreneurship, and SME growth in Iraq. We will explore innovative solutions and policies that will foster a sustainable economic ecosystem, paving the way for robust job creation across the country. The conference will underscore the crucial role of the private sector in Iraq, showcasing its potential to foster economic diversification and create employment opportunities. Co-funded by the Netherlands’ Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the European Union through the EU Regional Trust Fund in response to the Syrian crisis, the ‘MADAD’ fund, the conference stands as a testament to the commitment of international partners to support Iraq’s journey towards a prosperous and inclusive economy.
