With this in mind, multiple active labor market programs (ALMPs) for refugees have been launched and expanded, the best known being the ESF-BAMF program and various measures provided by the Federal Employment Agency (FEA).

Refugee Women’s Transition to VET in Germany: Examining the Role of Gender Norms and Human Capital Endowments

Based on a comprehensive data set for German motor ways, we estimate a Weibull dura tion model with shared frailties that account for unobserved heterogeneity, including covariates ...

The Long Way to Gender Equality: Gender Pay Differences in Germany, 1871-2021
