The Future of Jobs and Skills in the Middle East and North Africa, Preparing the Region for the Fourth Industrial Revolution

Abstract
This Executive Briefing – which draws on the insight and project work of the Forum’s System Initiative on Shaping the Future of Education, Gender and Work – finds that it is imperative for the Middle East and North Africa to make adequate investments in education that will hold value in the labor market and prepare citizens for the future. It aims to serve as a practical guide for leaders from business, government, civil society and the education sector to plan for the needs of the future. It is also a call to action for changes that will help young people harness new opportunities.
