Skills
and Workforce Development
When done right, skills development can reduce undevelopment
and underemployment, increase productivity, and improve
standards of living. Investing in upskilling or reskilling
people for jobs of the future makes economic sense.
Skills
development is at the center of changes happening in education
and labor markets amid the global mega trends. Skills
and workforce development systems must proactively adapt
to fast transformations posed by automation, climate action,
digitalization, and the evolving labor markets.
Digital
skills development
Digital skills allowed children and adolescents, especially
those from the most excluded populations, to perform better
in their daily lives, successfully transition to a decent
job or start a business, and participate productively
in their communities.
The COVID-19 pandemic provided a strong impetus for digital
solutions, highlighting the importance of digital skills
in all areas of life, including the workplace. Therefore,
developing digital skills and making them accessible to
the most vulnerable and excluded children and adolescents
could be one of the most decisive factors in achieving
equal opportunities. However, households’ access to connectivity
is a major challenge in Latin America and the Caribbean.
