Despite the recognition that education is a fundamental human right that strengthens labour market outcomes for girls and young women, gender disparities in education are widespread, especially in digital access and competencies. To prepare them for meaningful and equal engagement in decent work, and for the job market shifts yet to come, multi-stakeholder dialogue and cooperation are required. The Action Coalitions on Economic Justice and Rights and Technology and Innovation for Gender Equality will explore actions for catalyzing change by providing girls and young women with the quality education and skills needed to prepare them for the future world of work, successfully transition into the labour force and become leaders in the labour market.

FORMAT:
