World Youth Skills Day 2026 | Generation Unlimited
Connecting skills, opportunities and partnerships to help young people go further.
About the Campaign
Young people are doing all they can to shape their futures in a world of work that is changing faster than ever.
But skills are only part of the journey.
The #WorkLifeReady campaign shines a light on the pathways that help young people move from learning to livelihoods. Through stories from young people, leaders and partners, the campaign highlights how skills, networks, work experience, mentorship and opportunity come together to unlock livelihoods and shape futures.
#WorkLifeReady is a call to action: helping young people go further requires partnership.
Why #WorkLifeReady?
Young people need more than technical skills alone. Every journey is different, but one thing remains constant: young people go further when opportunities are within reach.
Through stories from young people, leaders and partners, #WorkLifeReady highlights the collective effort required to create those opportunities and build a future where every young person can realize their potential.
