Shaping the future of work: A glimpse in the Davos lab's Youth Recovery Plan

19.10.2021 19:00 – 20:30

The Davos Lab is an initiative of the World Economic Forum Global Shapers Community launched in early 2021. This initiative aimed to design a Youth Recovery Plan assessing which enduring changes young people foresaw after the pandemic and what they would do differently if they were in charge. Working together, Global Shapers worldwide organized Davos Lab dialogues in 146 cities, reaching a total audience of over 2 million people and generating 40 policy recommendations to end intergenerational injustice and build a better society for tomorrow.
Some of the critical challenges young people foresaw revolved around the necessity to work towards a more inclusive and resilient notion of work. Young people shared their concerns about the fragility of the labour market, compounded by an almost bankrupt social security system. Beyond rethinking skills and education, the new generation appears to rally behind a global wealth tax to help finance more resilient safety nets and manage the alarming surge in wealth inequality.

And you, what are your thoughts and fears about the future of work? Join us for an insightful, interactive discussion.

Événement organisé par l'association Global Shapers Geneva Hub.
