Figueres, Alt Empordà, will host the Fòrum Imagina: Talent, Empresa i Ocupació al territori (Imagina Forum: Talent, Business and Employment in the Territory) on 20 May at 10am. The event, held at the Cercle Sport, will address the distinct challenges of the region's labour market, according to L'Empordà.

The Alt Empordà's employment landscape is shaped by several factors. These include a strong reliance on services and tourism, significant territorial diversity, its border location, and ongoing difficulties in attracting and retaining skilled workers. This complex environment, however, also presents many opportunities for growth and development.

Exploring Solutions for Regional Employment

The forum aims to move beyond simply diagnosing these issues. Organisers intend to create a shared space for discussion, allowing participants to identify real needs within the labour market and explore potential solutions. The event will bring together various stakeholders to reflect on these matters and debate possible responses to the region's employment challenges.
