The transition to a green economy is creating new jobs, and training workers to seize these opportunities is essential. In Colombia, the Inter-American Development Bank, in partnership with the Climate Investment Fund, is implementing a train-the-trainer program in two key sectors: renewable energy and sustainable and ethnic tourism. This program, developed by the National Learning Service of Colombia (SENA, by its initials in Spanish) with support from the Colombian-German Chamber of Commerce, aims to prepare instructors to pass on this knowledge to their communities. Watch this video to learn how this initiative is driving sustainable employment in the Colombian Amazon.
