Future-Proof Workers: Green Skills for Tomorrow
Germany faces challenges in its transition to sustainable value chains and carbon-neutral economic growth, exacerbated by labor and skills shortages. The immigration of qualified workers, even from outside Europe, can address these shortages. Training and recruiting workers with green skills from climate-vulnerable countries can create synergies between economic policy and development cooperation. The need for qualified green workers is crucial to ensure economic competitiveness and transition to a climate-sustainably future.
