Initiated in 2005, the EN RLMM has become a hub for exchanging innovative approaches to monitoring and forecasting regional labour markets. This volume presents methods, data, and knowledge transfer practices that enable anticipation of regional trends. Contributions from 31 experts highlight how tailored foresight approaches can support evidence-based policy planning in increasingly complex and dynamic labour market environments.
