Governance for Youth, Trust & Intergenerational Justice - Fit for all generations?

Описание: October 22, 2020. Watch OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurria launch the OECD Public Governance Review report: Governance for Youth, Trust and Intergenerational Justice - Fit for All Generations. Listen also to Netherlands Princess Laurentien's thoughts on youth empowerment, participation and emancipation and other points elaborated in the report.

Global transformations – from population ageing to digitalisation, rising inequalities and climate change – have created profound uncertainties for young people and future generations, despite unprecedented access to information, education and technology. Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated pre-existing challenges in youth’s mental well-being and employment, while raising concerns about the sustainability of public finances.

The OECD report discussed in this webinar provides the first comparative assessment of the policies, laws, institutional capacities and governance tools put in place by 42 national governments and the European Union to promote youth empowerment and intergenerational justice.
