Abstract
Timor-Leste, a young country with a
young population, has enjoyed rapid growth driven by a
booming oil sector. However, the country still faces
significant challenges such as a high poverty rate, a lack
of infrastructure, high levels of unemployment among the
youth and critical human resource constraints. The skills
shortage has been felt throughout the economy, starting with
the oil and gas sector where a large proportion of workers
are foreign. Developing a skilled workforce is a necessary
step to stimulate the incipient private sector and attract
foreign investment.
