| Summary: | Successful Education Actions (SEAs) have proven to be key to generating opportunities for vulnerable groups. Building a sustainable future requires ensuring inclusive education that addresses inequalities and fosters social cohesion, aspects that SEAs promote by addressing educational and occupational inclusion. Recent studies underline the effects of SEAs on education and social cohesion. However, their impact on employability development has been insufficiently explored. Therefore, this study presents a systematic review that explores how SEAs contribute to the development of transversal competences that improve the employability of people in vulnerable situations, impacting on three dimensions: individual characteristics, personal circumstances, and contextual factors. PRISMA2020 methodology was used, and 30 empirical articles were analysed. After analysis, the results show that the high social and educational expectations, participation, quality relationships, community engagement, and co-creation promoted by SEAs have a significant impact on the employability of participants. These factors can contribute to more sustainable cities by fostering inclusive and lasting employability. The study systematises the positive effects of SEAs on employability and proposes optimal educational strategies that facilitate informed decisions for managers and policy makers. |
