No. 007: Ukrainian Refugees and The Labour Market
This issue of the MDAD covers Ukrainian refugees and the labour market. While a huge influx of refugees from Ukraine has brought new skilled workers to Moldova, refugees as a whole have struggled to integrate into the labour market. The contribution by Margherita Gobbat analyses how structural labour market constraints heavily affect this process. This issue also contains labour market and education statistics showing the size of the labour force, education and employment rates.
No. 006: Relations Between Moldova and Ukraine
This issue of the MDAD covers relations between Moldova and its neighbour Ukraine from various perspectives. The first text by Svetlana Suveica covers the history of these relations from the 19th century onwards. Anastasia Pociumban follows up with a text on the impact of Russia’s war on these relations. In the third contribution, Sabine von Löwis and Yulia Abibok zoom in on the current situation around the border between Ukraine and Transnistria. Finally, statistics on trade and refugees are presented. The issue was put together based on ideas of editorial board member Svetlana Suveica.
