TACKLING THE SKILLS GAP IN BLUE CAREERS
(Maria Damanaki, Commissioner for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries)
- One of the paradoxes of our time is that, while half of our young people are unemployed in the EU, the blue industry has difficulties to find people with the appropriate skills. We know for example that there is a shortage of qualified workers for the growing sector of offshore wind industry.
Considering that the EU needs to be at the forefront of Blue innovation and should not risk being overtaken by competitors, we need to concretely address this skills gap.
