Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are major breakthrough technologies that are transforming the economy and society. The OECD’s Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Skills (AIFS) project is developing a programme to assess the capabilities of AI and robotics, and their impact on education and work. This volume reports on the first step of the project: identifying which capabilities to assess and which tests to use in the assessment.
In partnership with IBM, the OECD recently conducted a social media poll, asking young people how well prepared they feel about joining the world of work, how confident they are about their future paths, and what concerns them about education and jobs in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this episode, the OECD and IBM discuss insights from the poll and why career guidance and real-world work experiences are more important for young people than ever.
This report explores how a well-being approach can help build back better and identifies common well-being priorities for recovery.
This report examines how public policies at national, regional, and local levels can support job creation, economic growth and social inclusion by overcoming obstacles to business start-ups and self-employment by people from disadvantaged or under-represented groups in entrepreneurship. It shows substantial potential to combat unemployment and increase labor market participation by facilitating business creation in populations such as women, youth with disabilities, the unemployed, and immigrants.
This report examines the policy delivery frameworks and the capacity of local actors in Ireland to put in place integrated policy responses to tackle youth unemployment. In Ireland, the Dublin and southeast regions were taken as case studies to look at the range of institutions and bodies involved in youth employment.
The toolkit includes step-by-step modules to carry out a youth well being diagnosis and includes practical examples of common youth policies and programmes in areas of education, employment and skills, health and civic participation.
This document presents an assessment and lessons on successful local approaches to support youth into employment, education, or training from a series of case studies undertaken in 2011 and 2012 in OECD member and non-member countries.
This brief covers the scale as well as the drivers for and barriers to youth entrepreneurship and self-employment. It also presents policy lessons from evidence on entrepreneurship activities and policy experience.
