Anxieties about public life, and the economy of the United Kingdom diversity are frequently framed as a cultural threat to in the next 40 years. Runnymede first considered Europe’s identity or way of life, while anxieties about estimates of the BME population in a 1971 report, an ageing population are more regularly framed in and until the 1991 Census – when ethnicity was economic terms, or about the viability of Europe’s first included – we consistently argued in favour of economic model in an increasingly competitive world. collecting data on ethnicity.

  • Leeds City Region Labour Market Report 2018
    Labour Market Report 2018 Labour Market Report 2018 1 Labour Market Report 2018 Introduction: skills and the wider economic challenge This document aims to provide an understanding of the skills that are needed to support economic growth and enhanced productivity and living standards in Leeds City Region, both now and in the future. Skills play a central part in addressing the major economic challenges that face the region, around low productivity, lagging living standards and entrenched deprivation at neighbourhood level. Through our Employment and Skills Plan, we are committed to addressing these challenges in the following ways: • Increasing the supply of economically-valuable higher level skills in order to drive innovation and productivity growth • Ensuring that more and better apprenticeships are available to enable employers to grow their own skills to meet the specific needs of their business, particularly in shortage areas • Providing individuals with the skills they need to get into employment and to fulfil their career potential, as well as to adapt to the changing needs of the labour market • Supporting engagement between employers and the education system so that young people understand the opportunities available in the local labour market and are well-prepared to make the most of those opportunities • Encouraging employers to invest in workforce development as a basis for improved business performance. In each case, an understanding of local skills needs and labour market prospects is crucial to taking our agenda forward. It informs our development of policy and strategy and more importantly it can be used to help individuals to make better careers decisions, to shape the curriculum offer of education and training providers and to provide wider context to employers’ thinking about the development of their own talent base.

  • New Forecasts for the Uk's Ethnic Groups
    THE FUTURE IS DIVERSITY: NEW FORECASTS FOR THE UK’S ETHNIC GROUPS Philip Rees1, Pia Wohland2, Stephen Clark1, Nik Lomax1, and Paul Norman1 1School of Geography, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK 2 Hull York Medical School, University of Hull, Hull, HU6 7RX, UK Contact: [email protected] Paper for the European Population Conference, 31 August to 3 September, 2016, Mainz, Germany Abstract Developed countries with below replacement fertility face population ageing. This is slowed by a net inflow of international migrants. The influx leads to a population of increasing ethnic diversity. Most researchers focus on a historical understanding of the ethnic transition process. We use this understanding to forecast the population of the United Kingdom, projecting the ethnic transition forward for 50 years. This chapter describes the context, model, estimates and assumptions for projections of ethnic group populations in England at local authority scale, and in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Demographic component rates for ethnic populations are estimated using 2001 and 2011 Census data and vital statistics. A bi-regional cohort-component model is used with assumptions are aligned to recent official projections. We pay special attention to international migration assumptions because of the prospects of a new relationship between the UK and the rest of the European Union, consequent on UK electors voting in the referendum of 23 June 2016 to leave the European Union. Official assumptions and project assumptions about UK international migration are compared for their direct effect on the UK population between 2011 and 2061. There are also indirect effects through the higher natural increase for younger groups, which we illustrate for one set of assumptions.
