Event Description
Future Skills for the Green Labour Market: What Employers Expect from Tomorrow’s Graduates
Focus: What knowledge, competences and personal qualities will graduates need to succeed in agriculture, biotechnology, food systems, environmental sciences and the wider green economy?
The WP6 Tallent Management Strategy and the Guide on Recognising and Supporting Students make clear that UNIgreen should prepare students not only for immediate employment, but also for lifelong development, entrepreneurship, innovation and leadership in the green transition. It also identifies industry exposure, mentoring, practical experience and employer engagement as important elements of the student future-path model.
Areas of discussion include:
green and sustainability competences;
digital skills, data and AI literacy;
problem-solving and adaptability;
communication, teamwork and leadership;
interdisciplinary and intercultural skills;
how universities can better align curricula with changing labour-market needs.
