In early February, research theme and project leaders met in Cape Town for an engaging two-day workshop, to share emerging research findings and to start building synergies across research projects. The main objectives were to allow all researchers to engage with the emerging LMIP approach and model for a skills planning mechanism, and to conceptualise how the research and emerging trends could inform key policy messages. The focus was the development of the conceptual basis and architecture for a skills planning mechanism.
