Jun 17 2024

A Euronews Next survey of Eurostat data of education levels across European countries shows that 40.8% of Maltese have a low education level.

‘Educational levels are defined as low (less than high school), middle (high school), or high (university studies).’

This makes low education pre-primary, primary and lower secondary education (ISCED levels 0–2), which Eurostat bases off the International standard classification of education (ISCED).

Turkey had the highest share of the population with low education by far, having 61.8% of people with less than upper secondary education attainment.

Malta joined countries like Portugal, Italy and Spain in having education levels below 40%.

Meanwhile, 28.1% of respondents from Malta had a high education level, with 13.8 having medium (vocational) levels of education, followed by 17.3% having medium (general) levels.

Malta with Lowest Amount of Women Working in Science and Technology

Jun 17 2024

In 2023, the EU had 78.3 million people employed in science and technology, a 2.9% increase from 2022 and a 25% rise from 2013. Women made up 52% of this workforce, a stable figure since 2021, with most women working in service activities. Malta was an exception, with only 48% of women in these roles working in services.

Regionally, Lithuania and Latvia had the highest shares of women in science and technology jobs (63%), while Malta had the lowest (45%). In terms of specific roles, scientists and engineers made up 24% of the workforce, with Germany having the largest number. Although women are the majority in science and technology, they are underrepresented as scientists and engineers, comprising only 41% of this subgroup.

Malta’s lower percentage of women in science and technology service activities highlights a unique gender distribution in its workforce, contrasting with broader EU trends.
