L4S Publications

Link4Skills is producing a wide range of publications for different audiences. These include working papers, country profiles, a handbook on good practices, and a policy brief. We have multiple books in the pipeline, including a “Fair Skills Flow Manifesto”. Keep up with our outputs and events on LinkedIn or through our Newsletter

Policy Brief

The Link4Skills Policy Brief is a working document that is being updated as the project evolves. The initial version, issued in January 2025, examines the effects of artificial intelligence and automation on European labor markets, highlighting both challenges and opportunities. The brief presents evidence indicating AI and automation enhance productivity and create high-skilled jobs while also displacing routine and low-skilled roles, inducing labor market polarization. Policy recommendations include expanding reskilling programs, addressing biases in AI systems, and improving credential recognition for migrants.

Working Papers

xx This report presents a low-resolution prototype (mockup) of the Link4Skills Navigator. It’s essentially a status report on development of the Navigator as of November 2024.  It describes the Navigator’s key functionalities and explains the ongoing development process. A functional prototype of the Navigator is due for release at the end of 2025.

L4S Working Papers capture key elements of our research and innovation activities. They provide insights into cross-border labour migration, skill stocks, brain gain & drain, migration corridors, and the development of the our AI-empowered Navigator.
