## **🎓** 10% Unemployment Among Turkey’s Tertiary Graduates

In 2023, Turkey recorded the highest unemployment rate among tertiary-educated individuals at 9.34%, followed by Greece and Spain, while Czechia had the lowest at 0.93%. This disparity highlights differing labor market capacities to absorb highly educated individuals. To address structural challenges, Turkey is aligning education with [labor market needs](https://www.oecd.org/content/dam/oecd/en/publications/reports/2023/12/labour-market-and-education-reforms-are-needed-to-create-more-and-better-jobs-in-turkiye%5F906e7409/54657452-en.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com), addressing skill gaps, and reforming regulations like severance pay and [minimum wage](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkey-raises-monthly-minimum-wage-by-30-2025-2024-12-24/?utm%5Fsource=chatgpt.com) structures. These efforts aim to create formal jobs and address the skills gap. 

## 🏭 5% Decline in China’s Robot Installations

Between 2014 and 2023, China's industrial robot installations surged from 57K to 276K units, marking a 384% increase. This growth aligns with initiatives like[ "Made in China 2025"](https://merics.org/sites/default/files/2020-04/Made%20in%20China%202025.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com) and the [Robotic Industry Development Program](https://www.usitc.gov/publications/332/executive%5Fbriefings/chinese%5Findustrial%5Frobots.pdf?ref=newsletters.qs.com), which aim to modernize manufacturing and boost robotics innovation. China's policies, such as the["The five-year development plan for the robotics industry in the 14th Five-year plan](https://ifr.org/post/understanding-the-new-five-year-development-plan-for-the-robotics-industry-in-china?ref=newsletters.qs.com)," have positioned it as the world's largest market for industrial robots, fostering domestic production and technological advancements.

## 🍃 >30% of Sustainability VPs With Other MBAs

Sustainability professionals with advanced degrees are increasingly important, and managerial positions are rising. Governments support this trend through policies like the [US Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act](https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3684?ref=newsletters.qs.com) and [Canada's Sustainable Jobs Training Fund](https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/funding/sustainable-jobs-training-fund.html?ref=newsletters.qs.com). These initiatives align with [UN Sustainable Development Goals](https://www.globalgoals.org/goals/13-climate-action/?ref=newsletters.qs.com), fostering education in sustainability to drive transformative change and create sustainable jobs. These projects focus on reskilling workers to seize opportunities in renewable energy, energy efficiency, and other green sectors.
