Atelier IIF à la COP28 - Renforcement des capacités des jeunes dans le domaine du froid et de développement des compétences locales

The refrigeration sector is fast expanding. We require more and more equipment and applications, and therefore we need an increasing number of qualified people all over the world in the sector. It is vital to make the importance of the refrigeration and building industry more visible to the general public, and particularly to the younger generation, helping to ensure a brighter and sustainable future.
