How can growth create jobs and opportunities for the next generation?

Growth is a necessary condition for job creation, but it is not sufficient on its own. An estimated 40% of global employment is exposed to AI, underscoring the scale of workforce transition ahead. Meeting this challenge requires more than capital. It demands investment in the enabling infrastructure, education, skills and regulatory environments that allow entrepreneurship to flourish and new industries to take root. Tourism, agriculture, value-added manufacturing and the digital economy all offer significant employment potential, but only if governments, businesses and investors align with strategies that encourage job creation and ensure that technological progress expands growth opportunities.
