How can employment services help workers and enterprises navigate the green transition?
The transition towards environmentally sustainable economies is transforming labour markets. It is creating new occupations, changing existing ones and generating new demands for skills and competencies. Public and private employment services are strategically positioned to connect these transformations with employment opportunities. They can help identify changes in labour demand, anticipate emerging skills needs, guide workers towards new opportunities and support employers in finding the competencies they need.
This webinar brings together Public Employment Services and Private Employment Agencies to exchange experiences, identify practical tools and approaches, and explore how employment services can strengthen their contribution to a just transition. Particular attention will be given to identifying green employment opportunities, understanding the transformation of occupations and skills, strengthening links with employers and training systems, and learning from approaches already being developed across the region.
The webinar uses peer learning and South-South Cooperation to identify experiences and tools that could be adapted or transferred between countries and institutions.
