Join us for the Skills2Capabilities final conference
Over the past three years, the Skillls2Capabilities project (S2C) — funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme — has investigated how individuals’ skills and capabilities can be developed and sustained throughout working life. Drawing on interdisciplinary research from nine partner organisations across Europe and beyond, we explored the changing nature of work, transitions across the life course, and the role of education and skills policy in shaping capabilities for the future.
This two-day conference will bring together researchers, policy-makers and practitioners to share results, reflect on implications, and explore connections with related initiatives. We hope the event will provide space for mutual exchange and future collaboration.
Programme highlights:
Thursday 13 November – Policy and Strategy Day
- Keynote lectures by Sandra McNally (University of Surrey, England) and Stephanie Matseleng Allais (University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa)
- Policy insights from S2C’s research
- Poster session and panel discussion on project findings and policy implications with, among others, Glenda Quintini (OECD), Ken Mayhew (Oxford), Paolo Nardi (EfVET), Irene Mandl (ELA).
- Concluding reception and informal networking
Friday 14 November – Research Insights Day
- Scientific presentations from S2C and related projects
- Closing forum: Where do we go from here?
