dc.description.abstractThis paper examines the current and future prospects for the movement of architects and engineers between India and the EU, based on secondary information and a primary survey. Due to ageing population and a shrinking workforce, the EU Member States are facing shortage of skilled professionals, including architects and engineers. While some studies show that India has a large pool of architects and engineers, others point out that India's own demand for these skills will rise and the country will face skill shortages. None of the studies contradict the fact that India's young population, if provided the right education and training, can complement the skill requirements of the domestic economy and the EU. Thus, there is potential for enhancing trade in this sector. This is accentuated by the presence of a large number of EU companies in India and some Indian companies in the EU. The study found that there are several barriers to the bilateral movement of architects and engineers, which includes rigid work permit and visa regimes, registration and nationality requirements and differences in accreditation standards and qualifications. Some of these barriers can be addressed through trade agreements such as the ongoing India-EU BTIA, but majority of them will require domestic reforms in India and the EU and collaboration and sharing of information among professional bodies of India and EU Member States.
