The proliferation of technologies and automation have altered the nature of jobs, and caused substantial shifts in labour market demands. Therefore, there is a pressing need for young people to upgrade their skills to keep up with those ever-changing demands in the world of work.
Today, ESCWA held an AFSD session on “Moving forward on the learning-to-earning agenda in the Arab region”, during which participants discussed policies and practical responses to support young people during their school-to-work transition.
The session highlighted the most in-demand skills in the Arab labour market according to the ESCWA Skills Monitor, as well as new skills that young people can learn to improve their employment prospects.
