Clinton Global Initiative 2023’s Spotlight Session on September 19th, featuring will.i.am and Secretary Miguel Cardona as they delve into the challenges faced by the current generation of students. These students are challenged daily, navigating global conflicts, pandemics, and the escalating consequences of climate change from a young age. Comprising around 30 percent of the global population and representing the most racially and ethnically diverse generation in the U.S., they are now entering the workforce.

The discussion emphasizes the potential for companies to leverage Gen Z’s resiliency, drive, digital fluency, and social consciousness as they step into professional roles. Despite their collective strengths, not all of these young people have had equal access to opportunities. To address these disparities, businesses, organizations, and institutions can implement learning initiatives integrating soft skills and technical development. These efforts cultivate essential professional skills, fostering a more dynamic and impactful workforce.
