01In brief

The short answer.

Future of Work and Skills programmes organize its work on work and skills, society and human development, and artificial intelligence at three levels: global priorities, regional applications and country work. Each programme shows its recorded status, from exploring and forming to active, paused or archived, and a plan is never presented as an activity. Countries take part through their national programmes and the Consortium Secretariat.

Scoping to review.

Canvas · scoping to reviewDesign, not a record
Programmes and projects: a programme through its gatesA request with a named owner becomes a scoping note; inputs are qualified at a gate; delivery runs in workstreams; a controlled test and an independent review precede publication; the owner decides. Design of the process, not a record of a run.

04Levels

Three levels of work.

05Three levels

How work and skills work is organised globally, regionally and nationally.

Labour standards are set globally by the ILO, labour mobility and qualifications are regional, and employment and education policy is national.

  • Global: labour standards and classifications.
  • Regional: qualification frameworks and labour mobility.
  • National: employment services, training and protection.
06Status

Every programme shows where it stands.

A programme is shown as exploring, forming, constituted, active, paused or archived, according to its record. A plan is never presented as an activity.
