Yesterday, July 15, World Youth Skills Day was observed without much fanfare.

Empowering youth in the digital age

This year's theme, “Empowering Youth for a Sustainable Future through AI and Digital Skills,” is both timely and urgent. In a world wracked by climate crises, inequality, conflict, and technological disruption, there is a force we often overlook—the fierce, untapped potential of our youth.

Young people are not only the inheritors of tomorrow's problems; they are our future and the architects of today's solutions. But their brilliance can only shine when we invest in them, placing the right tools in their hands and harnessing their skills. And in 2025, that means digital fluency, artificial intelligence (AI) literacy, and a reimagined understanding of skills—not just traditional trades or rote academics, but creativity, ethical reasoning, and innovation powered by technology.
