International competition for talent This session will examine the massive population shifts that will occur over the next 30-40 years with effects on relative geopolitical influence, relative GDP, and migration. It will examine not only population aging but the impact on the world’s economy and political system of a shift in the population away from the OECD countries to the developing world. It will highlight the anticipated effects on migration, both with regard to supply and demand for labour of all skills levels and the availability of employment. Among these effects is said to be a growing international competition for talent. Is the competition real or imagined?

Accordingly, successful integration measures shall be thought as place-based ones. The workshop proposes a reflection on measures implemented at the local or regional level and their evaluation in terms of effectiveness. The discussion shall go in depth and present experiences as for methodologies of assessment and benchmarking, and descriptive variables to be considered as regards a contexts’ features and migrant populations’ traits.
