Canary Islands Youth Employment Collaboration

Overview

The Canary Islands government announced the official publication of a new collaboration aimed at boosting youth employment.

Disoft Servicios Informáticos S.L. has joined a framework agreement between the Canary Islands Employment Service, the Canary Island University Foundation, and the Canary Islands Business Confederation. Signed in July 2024, this agreement focuses on providing non-work internships to young people with degrees but no professional experience.

Details of the Initiative

• The initiative is part of the 'Cataliza VII' project.
• It seeks to help young adults smoothly transition into the workforce through guided practical experiences in local businesses.
• The latest addition, Disoft Servicios Informáticos, formally adhered to the agreement in early July 2025.
• This expansion creates more opportunities for young people to gain real-world skills.

Regional Commitment and Goals

"This move underscores the region’s commitment to addressing youth unemployment by fostering closer ties between education and industry."

• The government aims to increase transparency by publicizing these collaborations.
• The goal is to ensure the community is aware of measures supporting young job seekers.
• Such policies are timely, as youth unemployment remains a concern in Spain.
• Regional efforts like this could serve as a model for successful integration into the job market.
