Sustainability Competence and Green Skills​

Definition

Green skills are the knowledge, abilities, values and attitudes needed to live in, develop and support a sustainable and resource-efficient society (Cedefop, 2012). Green skills are important as they will be needed in all sectors across all levels of the workforce due to the need for society to adapt to climate change and the related environmental requirements and regulations (OECD). ​
