Hello everyone,

Today, we are celebrating World Youth Skills Day, a special day dedicated to recognising the importance of equipping young people with skills for employment, decent work, and entrepreneurship.
This day highlights the crucial role skills play in enabling youth to contribute to their communities and build better futures. The young people play a fundamental role in the sustainable development of societies.
In 2024, the theme is "Youth Skills for Peace and Development" and it highlights the crucial role that young people play in building peace and resolving conflicts.
Find out more about UNESCO-UNEVOC's work on Inclusion and Youth.
In the OLS Portuguese Community, we also want to celebrate this day. Let’s share the skills that helped us the most during our Erasmus programme and discuss which skills you think are essential for today’s youth!
Share the Skills You Gained on Erasmus!
See you there :)
Juliane, OLS Community Manager - Portuguese
