Where jobs exist

 Some studies predict that the process of automation will lead to the abolition of jobs at a huge rate, but innovative technologies can also create new areas of work. A draft of the next edition of the World Development Report 2019, The Changing Nature of Action, indicates that the jobs provided by robots in the last century were larger than those that were eliminated. The ability of technology to change our way of life, our work and our organization increasingly makes us in the World Bank Group constantly wonder: how can we adapt existing skills and knowledge to future jobs? One answer is to harness the data revolution to support the creation of new development paths. There are about 2.5 quintiles of data produced daily by mobile phones, sensors, Internet platforms and other sources. When data are used to help individuals adapt to a technology-driven economy, they can make a huge contribution to the quest to end extreme poverty and inequality. But technology companies, however well-intentioned, can not do it on their own. To this end, the World Bank Group is partnering with LinkedIn to use its own economic graph, which provides insights and insights from its 546 million members to identify ways to equip employees with new skills or raise their skills. This new data source helps us understand which skills have the highest demand? What industries are increasing or decreasing? Where are jobs located? By improving information at the country and city level, we can help governments identify the skills needed to expand the industries and training programs needed to support them. This will, in turn, help countries find more (and better) jobs. With rapid technological change, where automation leads to shifts in industries and layoffs, LinkedIn provides an early warning system that can help increase the effectiveness of policy responses. For more than seven decades, the World Bank Group has worked across various economic sectors to end extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity around the world. Our Human Capital Project is building a broad coalition of stakeholders to assess and improve youth skills. The group is conducting extensive research on the links between investment in human resources and economic growth and accelerating the financing of investments in human capital. Partnership with LinkedIn is one of the many collaborations that we are building with the private sector. We work with companies like AirP, NB and Amazon to harness the data revolution for the benefit of society. At the recent Mobile World Congress, he announced a partnership with the International Mobile Network Association (GSMA), the global association of more than 800 network operators, on how to release data from mobile phones and Internet objects to address critical development challenges . In my speech, she said that with the use of smartphones, the Internet and social media, almost everyone would know how to live. Our economic experts have concluded that as people connect to the Internet, their income increases, that is, comparing their income, which raises expectations. Some studies estimate that by 2025, 8 billion people around the world may be able to access the broadband Internet, so there is no doubt that expectations remain high. Training and education programs must be in line with people's expectations. If they do not do so and the expectations are frustrated, the countries may slide into a quagmire of fragility, conflict, violence, extremism and migration. At the World Bank Group, we believe that innovative technologies can help communities become more resilient to crises and build new engines of economic growth. Eighty per cent of the population in developing countries have mobile phones, more than they have access to schooling. Technology does not change how we interact with each other, but also what we know about the extent of inequality and how to address it. Ensuring that today's students can compete in tomorrow's economy requires a vision based on the knowledge and experience of the private and public sectors. A development revolution comparable to and complementary to the Fourth Industrial Revolution could be achieved. I have never been as optimistic as I am now that, by leading alliances and partnerships, we can support new areas of growth in pursuit of a more inclusive and inclusive economy in the coming years and decades.
