The Twin Transitions: Preparing the Next Generation for a Green & Digital Future
On the sidelines of the 78th session of the United Nations General Assembly, Generation Unlimited’s Global Leadership Council (GLC) came together with a diverse assembly of global leaders from governments, businesses, foundations, multilateral organizations, civil society, and youth to explore new prospects to prepare youth for the green and digital transitions, with a particular focus on harnessing emerging Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies.
The twin digital and green transitions are sweeping the globe, transforming the way we live and work. The promise this holds for a climate-resilient future rests on whether today's youth acquire the skills and knowledge to succeed and thrive. There is a need for collective action to create an inclusive ecosystem where everyone has the opportunity to participate and benefit from a green and digital world.
At the GLC, partners announced new commitments and achievements that promise to help young people navigate the twin transitions, supporting them with skills, training, and opportunities.
