OSCE organizes webinar for youth on career planning and employment in Kazakhstan
The OSCE Programme Office in Nur-Sultan organized a webinar on 28 October 2020 for young people and members of the general public on career planning and employment opportunities in Kazakhstan.
An expert, Sayasat Nurbek, delivered a presentation on new professions, skills and opportunities for young people in a changing labour market. He highlighted “An Atlas of Emerging Careers”, a career guidance tool being developed under his supervision, that is designed to help young people understand future labour market trends and identify specialisms and skills that will become relevant or emerge in the coming decade in the country.
Some 35 people attended the webinar. The expert also conversed with the participants about the impact of economic shifts around the globe and in Kazakhstan. He explained how young people can be more resilient to changes in the labour market.
The event is part of the Programme Office’s efforts to promote youth engagement in the host country.
