## 👶 18% Increase in the Number of Turkish Preschools

The number of pre-primary schools in Turkey fluctuated from 30K in 2011 to 40K in 2022\. The government transformed [village schools](https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/download/article-file/1670348?ref=newsletters.qs.com) into Village Life Centers to provide ECE in low-population areas and increase financial support. Launched in 2022, the [Early Childhood Education Campaign](https://researchcentre.trtworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Early%5FChildhood%5FEducation%5FV5.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com) aimed to triple kindergarten capacity within a year. These initiatives underscore Turkey's commitment to universalize ECE and reduce educational inequalities, with ambitious enrollment targets for 2023.

## 🤖 >15% Drop in Robot Installations in Japan

Japan's industrial robot installations grew from 25K in 2013 to 46K in 2023, reflecting a strong automation push. Government initiatives like the "[New Robot Strategy](https://www.kantei.go.jp/jp/singi/keizaisaisei/pdf/robot%5Fhonbun%5F150210EN.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com)" and "[Society 5.0](https://www8.cao.go.jp/cstp/kihonkeikaku/5basicplan%5Fen.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com)" support innovation and adoption. These policies align with Japan’s goals of automating 81% of all domestic manufacturing by 2025 while remaining a leader in global robot industrial production, with 430K units already in use.

## ⚕️ Nearly 12 Medical Grads per 100K People in France in 2020

[![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/f1/d4/f1d411df-6f49-4c75-a302-f8c9e9f59495/content/images/2025/04/HolonIQ_Number_of_medical_graduates_in_France_1980_2020_Per_100_000_Inhabitants_HCHL5LV1W7O49H0WNXKT.png)](https://index.holoniq.com/charts/HCHL5LV1W7O49H0WNXKT/Number-of-medical-graduates-in-France%252C-1980-2020-%28Per-100%252C000-Inhabitants?ref=newsletters.qs.com)

France's medical graduate rate declined from 15.03 per 100K in 1985 to 5.24 in 2002 due to restrictive policies such as ‘’[numerus clausus](https://www.degruyter.com/document/doi/10.1515/gme-2024-0001/html?lang=en&ref=newsletters.qs.com#:~:text=For%20many%20years%2C%20faculties%20of,Ministries%20of%20Education%20and%20Health.),’’ primarily aimed at qualitative improvements, which ended up leading to a shortage of medical professionals. Recovery began with health [policy reforms](https://healthsystemsfacts.org/france/france-health-system-challenges/?ref=newsletters.qs.com), increasing the rate to 11.94 by 2020\. The government aims to expand medical education and incentivize rural practice to address shortages, aligning with broader healthcare objectives.
