Global Forum Qatar 2021
  • December 7 - 11, 2021

Each year the Youth Global Forum brings together over 100 talented young innovators and leaders from all around the world to discuss the most prevalent issues facing youth today. This time the Youth Global Forum brings to the table a topic related to education and the skills that will have to be developed to meet the challenges of the knowledge-based economy of the future.

They are rapidly moving towards a future where knowledge and specific skills will probably be the dominant factor in sustaining the global economy rather than natural resources. Worldwide digitalization, AI, and technology are, day by day, moving towards dominating the workplace. The young professionals of today should be constantly alert to acquiring the skills that will be essential to remaining competitive in a labour market that will develop and evolve in a framework of fast-changing economics while being mindful that equal access to this educational development is essential to reducing inequalities as opposed to increasing them whereby only the developed communities and societies will have access and be fully prepared for the future.
