All the great talk and predictions on digitalization, artificial intelligence (AI), the green transition and the demographic shifts reshaping labour markets are nice, but without providing constant learning possibilities on a global scale it won`t happen at least not on an equal level for all.

A recent ILO study taking over 170 studies into account plus lots of various analysis and data points at the risks if equal opportunities are not being given.

For instance only 16 per cent of people between the age of 15 and 64 confirmed that they participated in structured training in the year before they were interviewed.

And as a general view even in high-income countries, over one third (34%) of them allocate less than 1 per cent to public education budgets for adult learning and education. In low-income countries the figure is near two thirds (63%).
