Working conditions will play a central role in the reconstruction of Ukraine after the war.
There are two main reasons for this: the country’s demographic crisis and the challenges of integrating Ukraine into European structures.
However, the fact that working life is central to the normalization and Europeanization included in the plans and support measures for rebuilding Ukraine, does not mean that efforts to create an orderly and attractive labour market in Ukraine are free of conflicting interests.
As conditions in Ukraine are changing rapidly, there is a need for new knowledge based on continuously updated information. The capacity-building project UKRARBEID contributes by collecting, analyzing, and disseminating this type of knowledge.
The event will be held in English.
Light refreshments.
No registration needed.
