As a result, the purpose of this survey was to evaluate the small-scale labor market in Addis Ababa's Lideta and Akaki sub-cities. The study's findings will include a detailed description of the main characteristics of Addis Ababa's labor market, including women's, men's, and returnees. The study will detail the structure and trends of employment and unemployment in Addis Ababa, with a focus on women and men who are unemployed. It will serve as a foundation for future programming in various intervention areas and will aid knowledge of critical aspects of the broader labor market situation, ranging from skill areas with market demand to the types of jobs available. The study aimed to identify key inputs for designing WISE initiatives in the labor market, capacity building, poverty reduction, and future employment, as well as an assessment of economic, social, and technical market growth factors. Finally, WISE expects the findings to serve as the cornerstone for the creation of market-relevant skill training provisions. The study has the following specific objectives: to provide a reliable overview of current labour market trends and a snapshot of business, as well as an overview assessment of economic, social, and technical drivers of market growth, to determine the relevance of skills training courses offered in WISE to market needs and to assess immediate needs of unemployed youth and/or graduate.
