Abstract
This report presents the findings of the mapping of existing Labour Market Information System (LMIS), practices and institutional arrangements. The objective was to map the existing data sources and providers, review current practices, capacities and institutional arrangements for labour market information (LMI) and skills anticipation as well as provide concrete recommendations for improvement of existing systems and structures.The mapping was conducted under the framework of the Skills Anticipation component of the Skills Initiative for Africa (SIFA) Programme. SIFA (2019–2022) was a programme of the African Union Commission and African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD), assisted financially by the German Government and European Union. AUDA-NEPAD partnered with the International Labour Organization (ILO) to build the skills anticipation capacities of African Union Members States, as a means for improving the development of evidence-based skills policies, strategies and implementation.
