Inspiring the Future held its first edition to connect young Aruban professionals living abroad with the island’s labour market, according to 24ora’s October 19 report.
PEL outlines pathways back to Aruba
Plataforma Educacion y Labor representative Eddelyn Dijkhoff said the audience consisted largely of professionals who had already completed their studies, rather than students alone. She described the event as a way to explain local opportunities and how people could contribute their expertise even while still living overseas.
Panelists share return-to-Aruba experiences
Dr. Sulima Geerman, director of SABA Aruba, joined the panel to discuss returning after studying abroad. The source reported that she encouraged professionals to develop adaptable skills and help build structures they find missing, rather than allowing those gaps to discourage them.
PEL described the initiative as a response to the loss of skilled local talent to overseas labour markets.
