Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on Africa’s employment realities and, more importantly, the transformative solutions shaping the future of work for Africa’s youth. This event marks the release of Africa, Which Way Employment? – Jobs and Opportunity for the World’s Future Youth, our new video podcast series that explores the multifaceted employment landscape across the African continent.
About the Series: Africa, Which Way Employment? is inspired by the Future of Development programme’s commitment to advancing strategies that promote decent jobs, elevate incomes, and ensure economic justice. The series delves into the systemic challenges, emerging opportunities, and innovative responses driving job creation across Africa. It features esteemed guests such as Arunma Oteh, OON (VP and Treasurer, World Bank 2015 – 2018) and Sharmi Surianarain (Chief Impact Officer, Harambee Youth Employment Accelerator).
This panel discussion will examine policy, progress, technology, and the future of work, and how innovation can expand opportunities for Africa’s youth.
