Green and digital transitions are interconnected and mutually reinforcing, crucial for a just future. Digital technologies aid environmental management, while sustainability guides digital solutions. These transitions will create new jobs, offset some losses, and demand new skills for all.

This session will explore the essential effects of these transitions on jobs and skills, identifying required skills (digital and beyond) to mitigate climate change impacts. It will also highlight policy measures and good practices for skills development.

Moderated by Anne Shannon Baxter (GSMA), panelists include Olga Strietska-Ilina (International Labour Organization), Nanko Madu (AfriLabs), Dr. Mindel Van de Laar (United Nations University – MERIT and Maastricht University), and Robert Marinkovic (International Organisation of Employers).
