Bloomberg: New York puts workforce development at heart of economic recovery strategy

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg of New York on June 25 said that the city puts workforce development at the heart of the strategy for spurring recovery from the recession.

Addressing delegates representing 28 international cities during a Job Creation and Workforce Development Summit, Bloomberg said that "we are confident that our Five Borough Economic Opportunity Plan will fuel a strong economic recovery, but in the short term, the pain created by this recession is very real. That's why the exchange of information and ideas at this summit is so helpful."

Hosted by New York City Global Partners, Inc., with Columbia University and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's Local Economic and Employment Development Programme, the summit is a two-day international meeting of government officials and policymakers and addresses the important role of cities in responding to the global economic crisis through job training and business development policies.

The summit was attended by delegations from Shanghai, Hong Kong, Amsterdam, Brussels, Budapest, Copenhagen, Dublin, London, Miami, New York, Stockholm, Tokyo, Toronto and other cities.
