This action will keep on strengthening those aspects and will, for the first time, be complemented by an increased use of technical assistance. This will improve the capacity of the education system. Acquiring a formal education has traditionally not always been a priority for parts of the Greenlandic population and widespread mental health issues are an additional obstacle to educational attainment. In line with the upcoming new education strategy of the Government of Greenland, a particular attention will be given to students' well-being and mental health, including issues such as prevention of gender-based violence. In the framework of an educational continuum, the budget support will provide increased fiscal space and predictability of funds. This will allow the government in the education sector to take measures in order to improve quality and accessibility across the sector. Taking into account the demand for educated workers in the mid- and long-term, as lack of qualified employees is putting major limitations to Greenland's economic development, enhanced access to apprenticeships and technical education make it easier for youths to train of the jobs that are needed in the green transition. It will also continue the previous programme's focus on better coordination in the sector to improve efficiency and on improved curricula and innovative skills in order to improve relevant learning outcomes. More students moving from lower secondary to upper secondary will allow for a potential increase in the number of students completing a qualifying education and joining the skilled workforce."}, {"bbox": [84, 702, 1148, 788], "category": "Text", "text": "To support Green Growth and Global Gateway goals, technical and vocational education will be a special focus of this action.
