As a partner of the Digital Skills Campaign led by the International Labor Organization (ILO) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Aspire to Innovate (a2i) has been committed to providing advanced digital skills training to 250,000 youth in Bangladesh since 2019. The main objective of the commitment is to empower youth in the country and equip them with a wide range of digital skills aligning with the labor market’s needs and demands.

In line with these efforts, a2i, in partnership with ILO and ITU, conducted a knowledge-sharing webinar on “Employment in a changing world: Effective digital solutions to support career guidance for youth”, last May 7, 2024.
