The [White Paper](https://eurydice.eacea.ec.europa.eu/eurypedia/norway/developments-and-current-policy-priorities?ref=newsletters.qs.com) "Desire to Learn" (2017) further reinforced systemic improvements. However, the 2024 drop to 631,172 students signals potential demographic shifts or evolving population dynamics. While policies like the [Integration Act (2020)](https://home-affairs.ec.europa.eu/system/files/2022-08/EMN%5Ffactsheet2021%5FNO%5F0.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com) aim to support migrant integration, the decline may require targeted adjustments to uphold equity and accessibility goals. ## 🏭 Collaborative Robot Installations Doubled [![](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXc-cm-2geAWdbUJuq6WCbuUvtJJUXq2bu9FD1xzSP0NIt4uRTTgHz_jQVoJL9v9QOtVUHXGBgs-j-xvbgbDS4MorN72xXy5Mr3cdNRWEcN7IG7OH9chfm_XGUO18_zymUxAK3JTfA?key=UAcjdZ5u1zmUAHSXbRGUSOz-)](https://index.holoniq.com/charts/HCH6N4UF7NXGG9JGUXOC/Installations-of-collaborative-robots-globally%252C-2017-2023-%28Thousands-of-Installations%29?ref=newsletters.qs.com) Global collaborative robot (cobot) installations rose from 11K in 2017 to 58K in 2022, then dipped to 57K in 2023, suggesting market shifts. Despite this, the cobot market is projected to grow at a [31.6%](https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/collaborative-robots-market?ref=newsletters.qs.com) CAGR (2025–2030). Governments are actively supporting this growth through initiatives such as the US [National Robotics Initiative 2.0](https://www.nsf.gov/funding/opportunities/nri-30-national-robotics-initiative-30-innovations-integration/503641/nsf20-522/solicitation?ref=newsletters.qs.com) and policies like the [AI Executive Order,](https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/11/01/2023-24283/safe-secure-and-trustworthy-development-and-use-of-artificial-intelligence?ref=newsletters.qs.com) which aim to address labor shortages and enhance automation capabilities. ## 🍃 3x Gender Gap in Green Jobs [![](https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXcLXIMg3lCmTFEWr4Ef9oDmINSbyBvu80ai4muNmi8ccCt9AwZHQfOpTjCw5meIUXaI4_8dQUkAIZEY0VV7zXDp7SKw_UiLxCqqjWE_GUmstActAnd43YjeGyZipLLxn0zvjRR3Sw?key=UAcjdZ5u1zmUAHSXbRGUSOz-)](https://index.holoniq.com/charts/HCHQACP96IVPCFIYUI8T/Green-jobs-employment-share-by-gender%252C-2023?ref=newsletters.qs.com) In 2023, green job employment showed a significant gender gap, with only 6% of women in advanced economies and 4.6% in emerging markets employed in green jobs, compared to 20.3% and 16% of men, respectively. Governments are addressing this disparity through policies promoting STEM education for women, mentorship programs, and gender-responsive reforms. Initiatives like Ireland’s [STEM-focused curricula](https://www.imf.org/en/Blogs/Articles/2024/10/07/why-women-risk-losing-out-in-shift-to-green-jobs?ref=newsletters.qs.com) and [public-private partnerships](https://www.undp.org/sites/g/files/zskgke326/files/publications/Womens-Green-Business.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com) aim to empower women, foster inclusivity, and accelerate the green transition. --- **Like getting this newsletter?* Request a demo for unlimited access to over one million charts* [Request a Demo](https://webforms.pipedrive.com/f/1uMbIPRqUeVuZ31jVtKWMWIuqU2ga1nKo8aotNdGihU16zgOzuTfRMb9XfIIGmcOT?ref=newsletters.qs.com) --- **Thank you for reading.
