High-level discussion on 'Simplifying Education and Work'
H.E. Minister Dr. Robert Habeck, who led the opening session addressed various important topics, including the challenges of unwelcoming gestures towards newcomers and the bureaucratic hurdles that need to be overcome. The ministry's proactive approach and future plans in this regard were truly inspiring. H.E. quotes:” The German government is committed to supporting education, training, and lifelong learning to provide better opportunities for our youth and a skilled workforce for the future” and “We recognize the importance of skilled foreign workers in filling labor shortages. The Skilled Workers Immigration Law is a step towards facilitating their integration and strengthening German businesses.”
