In the Republic of Moldova, Vocational and Technical Education (VET) graduates face various challenges regarding their transition to the labor market. However, students who have completed the „Decisions for a Healthy Lifestyle” course in VET, taught by well-prepared teachers, and who have benefited from a safe and friendly environment at school, in dormitories, and the workplace, have developed healthier life skills, teamwork abilities, critical thinking, and resilience in various life situations more effectively. The program represents the continuation of the project „Develop life skills and healthy behaviours of Students in Vocational Education & Training for their development and job readiness”, implemented by UNFPA, ADA, and MEC in 12 VET institutions, from 2019 to 2023.
