We built this map to understand the scope and breadth of green skilled migration projects, to enable information sharing, in order to draw out lessons. The different projects can be sorted by countries involved, green skill sectors, and whether it was led by the public or private sector.
As specifically targeted green skilled migration projects are a small but growing field, our pool of projects matched the following criteria:
- Include a training component in skills or professions that are relevant to the green transition, e.g. construction, engineering, welding, electrical skills.
- Includes a South–North labour migration component: circular, temporary, or permanent.
- Includes the intention to assist project participants in finding employment, either temporary or permanent, in the country of destination.
We have taken an agnostic approach to funding source, and have included a wide spectrum of projects: targeting refugees, public/private partnerships, and wholly private sector-led schemes.
This map is intended to be a living resource and is non-exhaustive. Please do get in touch with us to add to or edit the data.
