Integrating Refugees
summary
Germany faces about 1.3 million arrivals and roughly a million open jobs, and the panel lays out concrete fixes: focus on employers (cross‑cultural interviewing paid for by firms), simplify licensing (Illinois removed experience barriers), digitize training and profiling (tablet standard data set to match skills), and scale mental‑health supports. Results cited include trained 350 psychosocial counselors in Afghanistan now adapted to Berlin/Erfurt, tech scaling placements from ~1,000 to 3,000/year, and 36 CEOs made a public pledge that tripled company participation.
