Growing Tomorrow’s Workforce Today

Whether moving away from farming or emerging from conflict, Tanager prepares youth to succeed in the labor workforce. We identify the human capital needs of the marketplace, mentor youth to acquire essential hard and soft skills, and place youth with businesses where they can excel. We bring youth, local employers, and governments together to increase youth’s access to jobs and strengthen the workforce for a more vibrant, stable economy.

In Colombia, we work with local partners to offer training and job placement for vulnerable youth populations. Participants learn technical skills in priority sectors and gain hands-on experience with companies. They also learn critical soft skills to obtain and retain employment, and receive certifications endorsed by the Ministry of Education upon graduating. Read more.
