What Ministère de la Promotion de la Jeunesse, de l’Insertion Professionnelle et du Service Civique does

The Ministère de la Promotion de la Jeunesse, de l'Insertion Professionnelle et du Service Civique (MPJIPSC) is the government ministry of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire responsible for designing and implementing national policy on youth promotion, professional insertion, and civic service. It serves the country's youth population aged 0-35, who represent more than 77% of the Ivorian population. The ministry coordinates its operational mandate through three core agencies under its tutelle: the Agence Nationale pour l'Insertion et l'Emploi des Jeunes (Agence Emploi Jeunes, created by Ordinance n° 2015-228 on April 8, 2015), the Office National du Service Civique National (OSCN), and the Bureau de Coordination des Programmes Emploi (BCP-EMPLOI).

The ministry's product portfolio centers on the Programme Jeunesse du Gouvernement (PJGOUV) 2023-2025, alongside the Programme Social du Gouvernement (PSGouv) 2019-2020, the Stratégie Nationale de Protection des Jeunes (SNPJ) 2016-2020, the Service Civique program (vocational and civic training for ages 16-35), the Programme Stage d'Immersion (internships for ages 16-40), and physical service infrastructure including Centres d'Ecoute et de Conseils (CEC) and Espaces Café Jeunesse. Distribution is executed through regional directorates, CIES (Centre d'Insertion et d'Emploi des Stagiaires) centers newly approved in 2024 across Tiébissou, Korhogo, Abengourou, Bingerville, Yamoussoukro, and Daloa, and civic service centers in Abidjan, Bouaké, Daloa, Gagnoa, and Sassandra-Marahoué.

The business model is non-commercial: the ministry is wholly state-owned, funded through the national budget of Côte d'Ivoire with technical and financial support from international development partners including UNFPA, UNICEF, ONUSIDA, ONUDC, ONU Femmes, and PNUD. Services are delivered free of charge; there is no pricing model and no revenue generation. The go-to-market motion is direct government service delivery through agencies, regional directorates, and civic service centers, complemented by awareness channels including the official website (jeunesse.gouv.ci), RTI1 television programs ('Focus PJGouv', 'Ya Bara'), and social media. The ministry is led by Minister Mamadou Touré and operates with a civil-service headcount of 101-250 employees.
