GO TO SPEAKERS

Over the next decade, 1.2 billion young people across emerging and developing countries will come of working age. Yet only 400 million jobs will be created. The World Bank Group has established a High-Level Advisory Council on Jobs to address this issue. At this event, hear directly from World Bank President Ajay Banga, alongside Jobs Council co-chairs former President Michelle Bachelet of Chile and President Tharman Shanmugaratnam of Singapore, on the importance of pursuing bold and innovative ideas to create jobs that afford young people dignity and purpose.
