DESCRIPTION:\n	(A/RES/69/145)\n\n\n\n	In 2014\, the United Nations Gener
	al Assembly declared 15 July as World Youth Skills Day\, to celebrate the 
	strategic importance of equipping young people with skills for employment\
	, decent work and entrepreneurship. Since then\, World Youth Skills Day ha
	s provided a unique opportunity for dialogue between young people\, techni
	cal and vocational education and training (TVET) institutions\, firms\, em
	ployers’ and workers’ organizations\, policy-makers and development pa
	rtners.\n\n\n\n	World Youth Skills Day 2022 takes place amid concerted eff
	orts towards socio-economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic that are i
	nterconnected with challenges such as climate change\, conflict\, persisti
	ng poverty\, rising inequality\, rapid technological change\, demographic 
	transition and others.\n\n\n\n	Young women and girls\, young persons with 
	disabilities\, youth from poorer households\, rural communities\, indigeno
	us peoples\, and minority groups\, as well as those who suffer the consequ
	ences of violent conflict and political instability\, continue to be exclu
	ded due to a combination of factors. In addition\, the crisis has accelera
	ted several transitions the world of work was already undergoing\, which a
	dd layers of uncertainty regarding the skills and competencies that will b
	e in demand after the pandemic is overcome.\n\n\n\n	The United Nations and
	 its agencies\, such as UNESCO-UNEVOC\, are well placed to help address th
	ese challenges by reducing access barriers to the world of work\, ensuring
	 that skills gained are recognized and certified\, and offering skills dev
	elopment opportunities for out-of-school youth and those not in employment
	\, education or training (NEET). During this Decade of Action for the 2030
	 Agenda\, the full engagement of young people in global processes is vital
	 to generate positive change and innovation.\n\n
