Germany Debates Migration Reforms Amid Labor Shortages and Demographic Shifts
Migration and integration have become central topics in Germany's political debates. With the country relying on labour migration and demographic growth, discussions now focus on border policies, domestic security, and how to better integrate newcomers. A recent seminar brought together leading experts to examine these pressing issues. At the event, Dr. Thomas Liebig, chief economist at the OECD's International Migration department, highlighted the challenges in integrating migrants. He also called for reforms in asylum procedures to improve efficiency and fairness. His remarks underscored the need for clearer policies as Germany continues to depend on foreign labour. The seminar's findings will likely influence future policy decisions in Germany. As the country navigates labour shortages and demographic changes, the focus remains on refining asylum processes and improving integration. These discussions come at a time when migration continues to shape Germany's political and economic landscape.
