Job training in the countries of origin of potential migrants, also in light of new legislative mechanisms, is proving to be a fundamental approach to facilitate the regular migration of foreign workers who intend to reach our country and to meet the labor demand of Italian companies. However, the practical implementation of this opportunity faces both opportunities and challenges. In this multi-stakeholder dialogue, various parties involved will share their perspectives to understand how to best proceed towards sustainable development for all. The agreement signed by AVSI with the Tunisian government to initiate job training projects for Tunisian citizens to be employed in Italian companies will be presented; the needs and difficulties of businesses and those offering training programs will be discussed.
