Committee of Supply 2023 debate, Day 3: Mariam Jaafar on developing skills needed for a green economy
What is Singapore doing to develop the skills needed to support its net-zero transition and turn the green economy into an engine of growth? MP Mariam Jaafar asked this question in Parliament on Tuesday (Feb 28), saying more urgency is required to meet the high demand for talent to fill both green jobs and greening jobs. She said this includes addressing gaps in green technical skills, such as deep engineering and supply chain skills, and moving from awareness-building to application.
