Urban practice summary

Capacity Building for Third-Country Nationals addresses the need for a more active population and workforce in the municipality by combining attraction, establishment and integration strategies for third-country nationals (TCN) with professional training tailored to regional needs. Short-term certified modular training courses were created to increase the skills in high demand by regional employers. Three groups of people in particular benefit from this practice: Regional economic sectors gain access to a prepared workforce; TCN find jobs more easily; and the municipality retains citizens and promotes regional economic sustainability.
