Zooming In On: The new age for EU-MENA relations: turning ambitious partnerships into tangible impact. In focus: workforce readiness

The EU has launched its new political term with an ambitious strategy for Southern Europe and the MENA region. In contrast to previous approaches, the EU has now established a dedicated Commission portfolio for Mediterranean affairs, which is responsible for drafting the New Pact for the Mediterranean and the Trans-Mediterranean Energy and Clean Tech Cooperation Initiative.

The goal is to expand renewable energy trade and enhance clean technology manufacturing across the region. The EU’s political will is evident, as is the vast potential for renewable energy growth and job creation in the region. However, turning these plans into reality will require a highly skilled local workforce to ensure effective implementation and tangible progress.

What is the starting point?
What models of technical and vocational education and training (TVET) are best suited to prepare MENA workers for emerging industries like green hydrogen and clean tech manufacturing?
Are there any best practices in the region so far?
And ultimately, how to shape and ensure the respect of appropriate labour standards and working conditions?

This briefing provides a detailed view of these aspects, please download it here.
