🎓 Nearly 1M Qualified in Engineering and Manufacturing in Finland
Finland’s education system in 2021 saw the highest qualifications in engineering and manufacturing at 920K, with significant numbers in business and health at nearly 600K each. Lower figures in natural sciences at 60K and ICT at 130K reveal skill gaps in the labor market, prompting Finnish policies to emphasize STEM and practical training, aligning education with labor needs and fostering innovation for economic growth.
💨 UK Wind Farm Transmission Capacity Up 3X
The UK’s wind power transmission entry capacity significantly grew from 1.8 GW in 2010 to 10 GW in 2022, reflecting over a 5x rise. This aligns with ambitious goals, such as 50 GW of offshore wind by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions by 2035. Wind accounted for 26.8% of the electricity supply in 2022, meeting the 40% renewable target and underscoring the UK’s commitment to energy security.
⚕️ Over 3x Growth in Turkey's Health Spend
Turkey’s health expenditure rose from 250B TRY in 2020 to 607B TRY in 2022 more than doubling largely due to COVID-19 pressures, inflation, and rising healthcare needs. The Healthcare Transformation Program aims for 95% universal coverage, focusing on service expansion, quality improvement, and digital solutions, including telemedicine. This aligns Turkey’s healthcare objectives with global trends, enhancing system resilience for future challenges.
