TRANSFORM
The Future of Human Workforce: Embracing Change, Challenges, and Opportunities
Description

The project proposal focuses on the future development of the human workforce, with the aim of exploring critical aspects related to its future development.

The technological advances have significantly reshaped industries and lead to the emergence of novel job roles and unimagined employment opportunities that were just until recently unimaginable. The anticipated changes in the labour force will therefore require a corresponding change in the skills, competencies, and capacities of people actively participating in the labour market. In addition, it is critical to address the compelling task of reshaping workplace dynamics and prioritizing workforce well-being, as this aspect becomes increasingly important, especially in the face of labour shortages. By taking a comprehensive view of these interrelated aspects, it becomes imperative to address all of the above elements in order to maintain global competitiveness of European countries in an ever-evolving world and contribute to the necessary transformation of the labour market. The project will engage stakeholders in meaningful discussions about future workforce development, the project enables their participation in the policy-making process, which allows for an exchange of views and the co-creation of Europe's future through their valuable contributions. The project will also strengthen participants' awareness of their rights and knowledge of EU policies by examining and sharing lessons learned and best practices related to labour market challenges. 

In sum, this project seeks to contribute to empower individuals with relevant skills and knowledge, and foster an environment that encourages sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment, and decent work future for all.
