It is our understanding that the lack of workforce with a STEM background in the EU is partially connected to teachers’ shortages, coupled with the lack of necessary competences and information on EU labour market needs.
This position paper provides recommendations and highlights several best practice examples from ECEG’s membership to address these challenges.

In this position paper, ECEG presents a set of demands for the revision of the European Works Council (EWC) Directive.

This joint document highlights the need for a European strategy on STEM, which requires a clear assessment of the status quo and of future needs, with recommendations necessary to tackle the issue.
The paper identifies the roles and responsibilities of all actors, taking national or regional differences into account. It summarises key actions to be carried out by the European Commission, the Member States and the Social Partners for boosting STEM talent development.
