| Abstract: | This study provides a detailed analysis of the education and skills systems in Serbia in the context of the green transition and gives some recommendations for their future development. The document comprises five chapters, starting with the introduction into the effects of climate change on human capital and the crucial role played by human capital in the green transition. The second part provides an overview of the perception of climate change among Serbians, as well as a review of the skills and education policies for climate action in Serbia, including both the position of Serbia within the international climate change policy framework and the national policies for green transition. The third chapter analyzes the performance of the education and training system in Serbia and tackles the challenges and opportunities related to the development of skills and jobs for the green transition. The fourth part reviews curriculum and government programs on climate change and green transition in Serbia, with specific sections devoted to primary and secondary schools, technical and vocational education and training, higher education and research and innovation system, and green education infrastructure. The final section provides conclusions, recommendations, and good practices that can be used for further development of relevant policies and projects. This note builds on the findings of the Western Balkans Climate Change and Development Report (CCDR), expanding the narrative on education and providing a focused, country-level analysis to guide Serbia's education and training system in supporting a green and climate-resilient transition. This note focuses on education and skills for both the green transition and climate-resilient development. [This report was supported by the Climate Support Facility (CSF).] |
