An ACCEM report in 2024 found that 58% of migrants in Spain are overqualified for their jobs. Karibu attributes this to bureaucratic hurdles in qualification recognition, language barriers, and structural prejudices, particularly against African migrants. In response, Karibu aims to tackle deskilling on multiple fronts. It organises workshops with businesses and other organisations to address the structural and social issues that cause deskilling. And it also offers direct support to people with a migration background, through job orientation, social and digital skills workshops, and language classes. The grant will support Karibu’s decade-long efforts in this area.
