These challenges include:

• climate change
• technological advancements
• demographic shifts

However, these challenges also present an opportunity to redirect the current trajectory of the labour market and unlock the full potential of young people across the country.

“The key to unlocking the constructive potential of these trends lies in addressing fragmentation within the youth employment and skills system. We know there are wide geographic disparities in access to jobs and training and in levels of need across the country; and that many of the answers lie in more integrated local responses. Improving those youth employment and skills systems is one of three strategic priorities that we have at Youth Futures.” Chris Goulden
