Canary Islands Youth Employment Collaboration

Overview

The Canary Islands government has officially announced a new collaboration aimed at improving youth employment opportunities.

The entity Viajes Insular, S.A. has joined a framework agreement signed last year between the Canary Islands Employment Service, the University Foundation of Las Palmas, and the Canary Employers Confederation.

This agreement, part of the 'Cataliza VII' project, focuses on offering non-paid internships to young people with degrees but no professional experience.

Transparency and Commitments

Publication in the official bulletin ensures transparency and public awareness of the commitments involved.

With this step, Viajes Insular commits to providing practical training opportunities for youth, helping them bridge the gap between education and employment—a key concern for local policymakers seeking to reduce unemployment among young residents.

Broader Context

This development highlights ongoing efforts across Spain to support young job seekers, especially in a region where job prospects can be limited.

The initiative’s transparency reinforces the government’s goal of fostering more inclusive and accessible labor markets.
