Happy World Youth Skills Day

Today is World Youth Skills Day, a day that promotes the importance of education, shining the light on teachers as well as professionals working in community development.

Every year on 15 July, educators from around the world come together to celebrate the strategic importance of equipping young people with skills for employment and entrepreneurship.

This day was declared as an official event in 2014 by the United Nations General Assembly, and at the University of Bolton, we believe it’s important to discuss this year’s key topics. This includes some of the community challenges brought on by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic!

Find out more about this event, and why it holds relevance with anyone currently studying community development and youth work courses at Bolton University.
