The European Migration Network and OECD Development recently released their joint publication, "New and Innovative Ways to Attract Foreign Talents in the EU", exploring practical initiatives by national authorities to attract #foreigntalent. The report focuses on specific programs and projects rather than legal frameworks, including national initiatives that receive support from EU funding such as those organized under the #EUTalentPartnerships framework. It also analyses whether and how EMN Member Countries monitor the effectiveness of these initiatives and identify related challenges and good practices. This analysis was prepared on the basis of contributions from 21 EMN Member Countries and the OECD. The inform focuses on two groups of foreign talent: - third-country nationals with higher #professionalqualifications or skills; - those of all skill levels working in high value-added economic sectors. The inclusion of the latter group takes into account evolving innovation processes in the EU that are reshaping the landscape of labor migration by blurring the strict line between skill groups. This is particularly challenging in high-skills areas, where European businesses risk overlooking qualified candidates who lack a degree or accredited certification. High value-added economic sectors are understood in terms of the substantial economic value they add to the economies of EMN-Member Countries. This document does not include international students, whose primary aim is to pursue higher education.
