Human development is one of the pillars
of Botswana's Country Partnership Strategy with the World
Bank (2009-13). The Country Partnership Strategy (CPS) is in
line with Botswana's vision 2016, which, in terms of human
development, envisions the transformation of Botswana to an
educated and informed nation and to a prosperous,
productive and innovative nation as two key cornerstones of
the strategy. In line with these objectives, the World Bank
with support from the Ministry of Education and Skills
Development (MoESD) embarked on analytical study entitled
skills for economic growth and diversification in
Botswana. The work is informed by Botswana s need to
diversify its economy to facilitate stronger, more
sustainable economic and employment growth and,
concurrently, equip its workforce with a variety of skill
sets that meet employer needs. This note is divided into six
parts. The following section (section two) provides a
profile of surveyed firms; sections three and four present
the findings of employer and employee evaluations of the
types of skills needed for employment. Section five presents
the results of econometric analysis of the determinants of
wages and wage growth for employees. The final section
proposes some concrete recommendations on how to support the
development of the skills valued by the private sector in Botswana. |
