Germany has implemented various measures, including opportunity cards, migration agreements, and a consular service portal, to attract skilled workers from Africa. These initiatives are designed to streamline the process for foreign professionals seeking employment in Germany. However, despite these efforts, the country continues to struggle with attracting a significant number of African skilled workers.
Experts suggest that the perception of Germany as an unattractive destination for skilled workers, combined with bureaucratic hurdles and language barriers, may be contributing to the low numbers. Additionally, economic and political instability in some African countries could be deterring potential migrants. The German government has acknowledged these challenges and is working on improving its immigration policies to enhance Germany’s appeal to African professionals.
