Talent to a green Denmark

Talent to a Green Denmark focuses on attracting international labor to Danish companies.

Background and Purpose

The project helps Danish companies gain new in-demand foreign skills to ensure their continued growth and Denmark's green transition. There is a strong increase in foreign labor, but it is not without its practical, cultural and linguistic challenges.

The current widespread labor shortage hits small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) particularly hard. This project creates a unified national gateway to skilled labor through two main efforts:

Attracting highly skilled labor directly from abroad (highly educated and skilled workers with green transition skills)
Recruitment of international students and graduates in Denmark
Skills development that empowers SMEs so that management and employees are able to attract and onboard well-qualified foreign labor
