The final conference of the Skills2Capabilities (S2C) project, will take place on 13–14 November 2025 at the Bonnefanten Museum in Maastricht, the Netherlands.
This two-day event will bring together policy-makers, researchers, and practitioners from across Europe and beyond to reflect on the key insights from the S2C project and to explore future directions for skills and capabilities development.
The S2C project is funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme, and investigates how people’s capabilities and skills can be strengthened in a changing labour market, and how skills systems evolve to meet the demands of the modern economy and society.
Provisional programme highlights:
Thursday 13 November – Policy and Strategy Day
- Keynote lectures by Sandra McNally (University of Surrey, England) and Stephanie Matseleng Allais (University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa)
