Using results-based lending, Asian Development Bank (ADB)’s project on skills sector enhancement in Sri Lanka sought to improve the employability of youth who graduated from ADB-supported technical and vocational education and training (TVET) programs to 52% in 2016. Interactive voice response, a digital technology using automated phone calls, was used to verify whether TVET graduates are currently employed.
