Yemen vocational and digital skills development

Overview

In early November 2026, initiatives were launched in Yemen to enhance various forms of technical and professional training. Dr. Anwar al-Mahri, the Minister of Technical Education and Vocational Training, inaugurated a project to rehabilitate and equip six vocational training centers across the Aden, Lahj, and Taiz governorates. Funded by the Japanese government and implemented by the International Organization for Migration, the project aims to support roughly 3,000 students, including internally displaced persons, through infrastructure improvements and the installation of solar energy systems.

Concurrently, the Communication Program with Yemeni Scholars organized a specialized training course in Aden. This program focused on digital skills, including social media management, content creation, and cybersecurity, specifically for scholars, preachers, and religious representatives to help them adapt to digital media developments.
