Under the directive of the UN Secretary-General, as outlined in his Our Common Agenda, the ILO, ITCILO, Microsoft, AIESEC, UNDESA, and UNICEF, in support of the Global Initiative on Decent Jobs for Youth, are launching a Youth Employment Barometer survey to track career paths and labour market outcomes for youth through 2025 and beyond.

The survey is aimed at young people aged 18 to 34 years old, inviting them to share their voices regarding their aspirations and perceptions on their journey to employment. It will run from 7 November to 17 December 2024.

To incentivize youth participation in this global effort, we are launching an incentive campaign behind a prize draw that will offer 20 lucky winners a variety of exciting prizes, including scholarships, e-learning subscriptions, and blog publication opportunities.
More information on the survey and the campaign is available here.

The global #youth population, comprising 1.2 billion individuals aged 15 to 24, accounts for 16% of the world’s population and represents a powerful demographic force. Youth hold immense potential to drive the economic and social transformations to tackle climate challenges. However, unlocking this potential hinges on providing them with a strong foundation in quality education.

Building a resilient and empowered #generation begins with ensuring children acquire foundational #literacy and #numeracy #skills - critical building blocks for lifelong #learning, #personal #growth, and meaningful contributions to #society.

#Teachers are vital connectors within the #education ecosystem, bridging essential communication between #parents, #children, local #governments, and civil #society. Highly trusted and respected within their communities, they serve as both role models and facilitators of collaboration.

To implement effective #green #curricula, well-trained and well-compensated teachers are crucial. Their guidance transforms classroom knowledge into real-world #learning experiences, empowering students to take meaningful steps in #climate action and #sustainability.

School meal programs offer a powerful means to enhance child health, boost educational access and outcomes, and play a pivotal role in transforming food systems. Every day, over 418 million children around the world receive a school meal, underscoring the program's expansive reach and impact. In addition to supporting children's well-being and learning, these programs are highly cost-effective, creating substantial economic returns. Each USD 1 invested in food support translates into an economic return of USD 3 to USD 8 through improved health, educational outcomes, and increased productivity as these children grow into adulthood.

Climate change disproportionately impacts young children, particularly those in marginalized and conflict-affected regions, with 88% of climate-related health burdens affecting children under 5. Small children are especially vulnerable to air pollution, heat, and natural disasters, with over 175 million affected by natural hazards each year.

Implementing comprehensive, universal early childhood development (ECD) programs at the national level is a cost-effective and impactful strategy to address these challenges. ECD not only supports climate resilience but also mitigates the inequities worsened by climate change.
