How can the government make its green skills plan deliver for net zero?

Jul 1, 2022

Equipping the UK workforce with the right skills will be critical to the success of the net zero transition, and the government has committed to reforming the skills system.

What should those skills, and reforms, look like? How can the government make sure that the right skills are available in the right place at the right time? And what can it do to ensure that the opportunities of net zero are shared fairly across the country?

Discussing these questions were:

  • Sam Alvis, Head of Economy at Green Alliance
  • Alyssa Gilbert, Director of Policy and Translation at the Grantham Institute for Climate Change and the Environment
  • Ian O'Donnell, Net Zero and Special Projects Lead at the Federation of Small Businesses
  • Tom Sasse, Associate Director of the Institute for Government. 

The event was chaired by Jill Rutter, Senior Fellow at the Institute for Government.
