Foreword
South Asia’s contributions to the Asian economy and the global labor force are substantial and will continue to grow. The Asian Development Bank’s priority in the region is to complement infrastructure investments with strategic support to human resource development to help people move up the value chain. The objective of the Innovative Strategies for Accelerated Human Resource Development in South Asia (Subproject 11) under the Development Partnership Program for South Asia (RETA 6337) is to support emerging opportunities in priority human resource development through targeted policy dialogue grounded on relevant analytical work on technical and vocational education and training (TVET) and higher education.
Financial support from the Government of Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade—Australian Aid (formerly the Australian Agency for International Development) has helped to prepare six country-level reports on TVET and higher education for Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The reports identify each country’s human resource development priorities, examine issues and constraints, and recommend possible interventions to realize the full potential of their respective labor force. Overall, common issues revolve around equitable access, quality and relevance, and financing. Increasing the number of graduates with relevant skills has been a persistent challenge rooted in systemic quality assurance policies and practices such as the actual provision of market-responsive training and credible assessment and certification. Equitable access does not only depend on availability of funds to provide education and training but equally on efficient use of available resources and effective mobilization of and synergy between public and private institutions in each country.
South Asia’s huge opportunities arising from demographic dividend could be harnessed fully only if it is able to skill a large number of new entrants to the labor market every year and upskill
