In previous years, themes have included \u201cTransforming Youth Skills for the Future\u201d[1] (2022), \u201cSkilling Teachers, Trainers and Youth for a Transformative Future\u201d[2] (2023), and \u201cYouth Skills for Peace and Development\u201d[3] (2024). The event\u2019s overarching objectives include raising global awareness of the key role of technical and vocational skills development in employment and entrepreneurship; reducing educational inequalities, with an emphasis on equal access for women and marginalized groups; and aligning skills with labour market needs and sustainable development within the framework of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n<p>For 2025, the theme of World Youth Skills Day is \u201cYouth Empowerment through AI and Digital Skills\u201d[4]. This theme focuses on the need to equip young people with advanced digital skills and a deep understanding of artificial intelligence (AI), enabling them not merely to consume technology, but also to play an active role in its development, management and responsible use. In this way, this annual observance provides a platform for promoting skills-based training and paving the way for young people to succeed in a rapidly evolving technological world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year, on \u06f1\u06f5 July, World Youth Skills Day is observed.
