3PrefaceThe ILO Centenary Declaration for the Future of Work, adopted by ILO constituents onthe occasion of the Centenary of the International Labour Organization (June 2019), callsupon the ILO to direct its efforts to, inter alia, “developing effective polic ies aimed atgenerating full, productive and freely chosen employment and decent work opportunitiesfor all, and in particular facilitating the transition from education and training to work, withan emphasis on the effective integration of young people into the world of work”.The 2020 edition of the Global Employment Trends for Youth seeks to inform the design andimplementation of such policies based on an update of key youth labour market indicators and in-depth assessments of trends and issues in the world of work facing youngwomen and men.The report also comes at a critical juncture. As part of efforts to achieve SustainableDevelopment Goal 8 to “[p]romote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth,full and productive employment and decent work for all”, the international community wascalled upon to, by 2020, (i) substantially reduce the proportion of youth not in employment,education or training (NEET); and (ii) develop and operationalize a global strategy for youthemployment. As this report shows, at the start of a new decade, the target to meaningfullyreduce the proportion of youth NEET will be missed, highlighting the need to redoubleefforts to generate decent jobs for the next generation of workers. Furthermore, youthlabour markets around the world face a number of important challenges: the globaleconomy remains sluggish as geopolitical tensions, social unrest and global trade barriershave dragged on growth. Recent epidemics carry the potential to further slow economicactivity. These developments are particularly detrimental to youth as their employmentprospects, relative to older workers, are more sensitive to economic downturns.This edition of the Global Employment Trends for Youth focuses on the impact of technological advances on youth labour markets. It analyses both opportunities and risksfor youth in terms of job destruction and creation, the use of digital technology to improvelabour market programmes, and sharing productivity gains. Policy responses to addressthe potential risks are also explored. I hope this report will be a valuable tool in shapinga future of work with full and productive employment and decent work for all womenand men, including for young people.Sangheon LeeDirectorEmployment Policy Department
