🏫 10% Decrease in Elementary Schools in the Netherlands
Between 2010 and 2023, the Netherlands saw a 12% decline in elementary schools. Demographic shifts and consolidations contributed to this trend. The government aims to address disparities through initiatives like the "Masterplan basisvaardigheden" and the National Programme Education, focusing on equal opportunities and enhanced curriculum to ensure quality education for all, despite fewer schools.
🍃 >100K Jobs From Canada’s Energy Sector
Canada's energy sector saw stable employment from 2021 to 2022, with slight increases in exploration and production and declines in pipelines. The government's 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan and Powering Canada’s Future: A Clean Electricity Strategy aligns with climate goals, while the Youth Employment and Skills Strategy supports workforce development objectives. These efforts aim to foster sustainability while maintaining employment opportunities.
⚕️ 10% Rise in the Number of Doctors in Scotland
Scotland's doctor density increased from 3.8 to 4.3 per 1,000 people between 2018 and 2023. This growth reflects government investments in healthcare capacity, increased government spending, and workforce expansion, supported by policies like the National Workforce Strategy for Health and Social Care. Initiatives include increased medical training posts and funding for NHS development, guided by NHS Education for Scotland, aiming to improve education for the healthcare sector, leading to improved patient access and alleviating service pressures.
