EU Labour Market: Liberal Solutions to Retain, Attract and Innovate
European Liberal Forum (ELF) and Liberal Institute for Political Analyses
DownloadEurope’s economy is changing faster than its workforce can adapt.
Populations are aging, classrooms lag behind new skill demands, and borders still divide talent that should flow freely. From digitalization to the green transition, every major transformation depends on people, their ability to learn, move, and reinvent themselves. Yet Europe’s labour market remains trapped in yesterday’s structures, struggling to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

With a contribution from NEOS Lab Senior Researcher Clemens Ableidinger
DR. CLEMENS ABLEIDINGER makes a powerful economic case for the expansion of early childhood education and care (ECEC).
Highquality, accessible ECEC not only supports children’s development but also enables greater labour force participation, especially among women. Liberal policies should embrace ECEC not as a welfare cost but as a foundational investment in inclusive growth and long-term competitiveness.
