The Ministry of Youth and Sports will sign on Tuesday a cooperation agreement with Spain on providing job opportunities for young people.

The Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID) will finance a project worth about 150.000 euros aimed at offering job opportunities to youth through training and establishment of companies.

The Spanish Embassy in Cairo said in a press release on Saturday that the deal will be co-inked by Minister of Youth and Sports Ashraf Sobhi and Spanish Ambassador in Cairo Ramón Gil Casares.

The project includes offering training courses to 2,000 youth in entrepreneurship for two years, the embassy added.
