New @epc_eu @EIB Discussion Paper looking at the EU's approach to #ClimateMobility! We identified several challenges going forward:
1⃣ Policy incoherence
2⃣ Counterproductive narratives
3⃣ Weak institutional coordination
4⃣ Monitoring funding

What could Trump's 2nd Presidency mean for EU attractiveness to foreign workers & its role in the "global race for talent"?
Read my piece w/ @EmmaUgolini_ on possible immigration policy measures by the new Administration + how the EU should respond ⬇️

New year, quick update: I'll be testing the waters over on bluesky in addition to posting (hopefully more regularly) on LinkedIn - find and follow me ⬇️bsky.app/profile/helhahn.bsk…
Kanzler Nehammer fordert vor EU-Gipfel eine europäische Syrien-Strategie und will sich mit Italien, den Niederlanden und anderen über Migrationsfragen beraten, ähnlich wie beim letzten Gipfel. Die Rückkehr von Syrern steht im Mittelpunkt. derstandard.at/jetzt/liveber…
Ja, die Bedingungen haben sich grundsätzlich verändert, aber das Maß an Verantwortungslosigkeit ist hier kaum zu übertreffen. Billige Symbolpolitik, die einen sehr bitteren Geschmack hinterlässt. derstandard.at/story/3000000…
Dieser Schritt "bestätige lediglich, dass die Lage in Syrien nach dem Sturz Assads unübersichtlich sei und bisherige Schutzgründe wegen Verfolgung durch das Assad-Regime nunmehr wegfallen würden." derstandard.at/story/3000000…

New @epc_eu publication by @H__Hahn! Agri-food systems must be sustainable to move forward on climate mitigation and adaptation. But with an ageing population, the transition rests on a workforce with ‘green’ skills, in the EU and beyond. What is the role of skills mobility?
Happy to see my @boell_eu @IOM_MENA @epc_eu Policy Brief out!
More on how skills mobility pathways could support the #greentransition in agri-food systems in the EU & North Africa as part of the #GreenDeal⬇️

Recommendations:
➡️Address challenges in qualifications recognition
➡️Encourage policy alignment with EU sustainability & production standards
➡️Promote private sector investment
➡️Use Talent Partnerships to support skills development for the agri-food sector
...and more!
This Policy Brief was produced as part of the project 'Farming Futures', which is a collaboration between @boell_eu and @epc_eu with strategic inputs and support by @IOM_MENA. More info ⬇️

Had the chance to speak with @RoelVerrycken @tijd
about what Trump's immigration agenda might mean for Europe (in Dutch only).
Full article here: tijd.be/politiek-economie/in…
"Ägypten verfolgt mit dem Gesetz ganz eigene Ziele und will damit offenbar das UNHCR als jene Instanz ausmanövrieren, die darüber entscheidet, wer in Ägypten einen Flüchtlingsstatus bekommt und wer nicht."
Mit einem Asylgesetz will #Ägypten-s Militärregime das @UNHCREgypt als jene Instanz ausschalten,die über Asylanträge entscheidet. Begrüßenswert wäre das jedoch nur,wenn ägyptische Behörden die Genfer Flüchtlingshilfekonvention respektieren würden 1/ derstandard.at/story/3000000…

This👇 is unprecedented,I think
It institutionalises the tit-for-tat strategy that has been looming over the Commission hearings
Concretely, the left can only oppose ECR Fitto at the price of having S&D Ribera rejected
No individual assessment on their (democratic) merits allowed
As per Europarliamentarian Daniel Freund: "Under pressure from the Christian Democrats, the decisions on all Vice-Presidents of the European Commission have been postponed from today to tomorrow. They are expected to be voted on as a package solution."

With Stephen Miller now confirmed as deputy chief of staff and Thomas Homan as the official in charge of executing Trump's border policy, it's worth revisiting this article about what the 2nd Trump term could mean for immigration policy:

Helpful chart by @POLITICOEurope on the EP political groups votes regarding the new Commissioners.
Shows very much that the ECR now is fully part of the Brussels mainstream - voting for centre-left candidates, but also working more and more with the EPP.

📣Report out! Skills For Tomorrow: Unlocking the Potential of Mobility & Labour Migration
📈 On Tuesday, @magnusbrunner pointed to the role of labour migration for boosting the EU's competitiveness. @akaratzas_ outlines what that could look like here: epc.article7.eu/skills-for-t…

Trump will begin operations to deport millions of undocumented immigrants when he starts his term, campaign press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Wednesday morning.
He'll launch the "largest mass deportation operation" of undocumented immigrants on Day 1.
