Over 40% of graduates in Cyprus can't find work that matches their qualifications.
I've seen this same story play out in Asia, the Pacific, the Middle East, Europe. Different countries, different languages, same wall.
And it was never the students. It was never the teachers.
It was always the .
Old. Fragmented. Showing up months (or years) too late for anyone to do anything useful with it. The signals that should be shaping what students learn today are built on what the market looked like years ago.
With the Cyprus Foundation , Artemis Intelligence and CYENS Centre of Excellence delivering a Labour Market Intelligence System for the . Live data. AI agents that forecast skills demand 5 years out, track gaps in real time, and generate policy briefs without the months of manual work that currently sits between insight and action.
But honestly, the technology is almost secondary to me.
What I keep coming back to is what changes when curriculum is informed by where the market is going, not where it's been?
That's the version of a worth building. Resilient. Inclusive. Built for the people inside it.
Cyprus is where this starts for us. It won't end here. 👀
