2012 Report
Theme: Skills development
Many young people around the world are leaving school without the skills they need to thrive in society and find decent work. Political upheavals and economic crises have turned the spotlight on these education failures, which are thwarting young people’s hopes.
The 2012 Education for All Global Monitoring Report will examine how skills development programmes can improve young people’s opportunities for decent jobs and better lives.
The Report will be launched on 16 October 2012.
