Technological advancements and shifting labour market dynamics increasingly call for agile and adaptable skillsets. It is crucial that we empower young people to navigate these changes effectively. Technical and vocational education and training (TVET) is well placed to meet these demands by reducing access barriers to the world of work, ensuring that skills gained are relevant, recognized and certified, promoting green skills and practices, and offering skills development opportunities for youth who are not in education, employment and training.
To celebrate World Youth Skills Day 2023, UNESCO-UNEVOC and WorldSkills International, in collaboration with WorldSkills Germany, the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, came together to showcase the positive impact of youth skills development in an event titled ‘Empowering youth for a sustainable future’. This report provides a compilation of inputs from various speakers and participants at the hybrid event, as well as the results of the UNESCO-UNEVOC youth survey.
