As labour market demands rapidly evolve, education and training systems must keep pace. But ensuring they deliver the right skills at the right time requires more than just good intentions—it demands strong governance. Effective coordination across ministries, government levels, and non-governmental stakeholders is essential for shaping policies that truly work. Yet, many countries struggle to break down silos and engage the right voices to drive meaningful reform. How can governments promote better skills system governance? What can be done to foster better coordination and tap into real-world expertise of stakeholders to design skills policies that make an impact? In this webinar, the OECD Centre for Skills will present lessons from working with countries on strengthening the governance of their skills systems, with a special focus on better engaging stakeholders in education and skills policy. A panel of experts will then discuss best practices and innovative approaches to ensuring that stakeholders close to skills challenges—employers, trade unions, educators, and civil society—have a say in shaping the policies that affect them. Speakers include: - Ina Progonati, Sustainability and Social Impact Partnerships and Programs Worldwide Lead, HP - Liene Voronenko, Expert of Education, Employers' Confederation of Latvia - Johan Enfeldt, Research Officer, Department for Social Policy Issues, Swedish Trade Union Confederation - Marius Busemeyer, Professor of Political Science, University of Konstanz - Andrew Bell, Deputy Head of the OECD Centre for Skills and Head of OECD Skills Strategy - Abigail Sageev, Policy Analyst at the OECD Centre for Skills Moderated by Laura Reznikova, Policy Analyst, OECD Centre for Skills.
