<h2 class="h5">Job description</h2> <div class="t-break" data-jb-field="description"> Result of Service<br>The objective of this position is to work on research areas related to the ESCWA Skills Monitor, Labor markets, and economic growth.<br> Work Location<br>UN HOUSE - UN ESCWA<br> Expected duration<br>4 Months<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>Background: The world is currently experiencing the Fourth Industrial Revolution. With this transition, the velocity of change and the sheer number of innovations are unprecedented. This revolution will inevitably eliminate many current lines of work yet has the capacity to bring in new lines of employment. The agility of this revolution makes the jobs of the future difficult to predict using traditional techniques. Given this background, this project will tackle three main issues: o The lack of timely information to monitor the dynamism of the labor market needs; o The mismatch between human capital accumulation and labor market demand; o Labor market policies and regulations are mostly outdated and unprepared for the impact of automation on jobs in most ESCWA countries. Almost all countries in the region are still heavily reliant on costly household/establishment survey data which is not carried out periodically. To assess job market policies, skill sets for newly created job categories that are and will continue to come about from the Fourth Industrial Revolution must be surveyed in a more innovative way. Without a new monitoring technique, information on the impact of technological change on available skill sets cannot be properly assessed. One finding that we can build on conventional survey (household establishment) results is that workers with higher educational attainment are expected to benefit the most from jobs in the formal sector if high-quality education is made available and better job market matching schemes are put in place. Looking at the ESCWA region, educational attainment over the past three decades, during which the region excelled in primary and secondary education (mid-skills), suggests that the population does not necessarily have adequate skills for newly created jobs. Also, in the absence of up-to-date and active labor market policies, the mismatch between market demand (especially in the formal sector) and education is translated into higher informal sector activities in most ESCWA countries. This project is expected to provide a forum for ESCWA countries to prepare for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (FIR) while factoring in the number of jobs needed between now and the attainment of the 2030 Agenda. The key aim is to support ESCWA States for the upcoming change in jobs TOR: and skills due to technological advancements taking place while considering the national characteristics. Ultimately, we will help member states harness job opportunities emerging from the advent of newer technologies, while taming challenges to attain outcomes stated in SDG- 8---support member states sustain economic growth (8.1), reach high levels of economic productivity (8.2), promote productive activities (8.3), attain full productive employment and decent work for all (8.5) and reduce the number of youth not in employment, education or training (8.6). Under the supervision of the Team Leader of Future of Work Project and the overall guidance of the cluster lead, the Individual contractor will assist in assessing the Future of Work. The Individual contractor will particularly help in country requests for features and analysis of data collected by the Skills Monitor, assess the job mismatch. Duties and Responsibilities: The Individual Contractor will mainly contribute to the following areas: 1. Substantive research in areas related to the 'Future of Work' Project. This includes reviewing existing literature as a background analysis. 2. Update Economic analysis on the skills Monitor results on a monthly basis, including analysis of the results. 3. Conduct data analysis using (i) data from the ESCWA Skills Monitor and (ii) data from different government hubs, including unemployment countries around the region (Country Profiles). 4. Provide Economic analysis for countries' technical assistance. 5. Conduct Skills Gap assessments. 6.

The initiative aims to reduce inequalities in the Arab region by creating employment opportunities for young people, enhancing their skills, and providing training to improve their employability. It serves as a regional platform that connects youth with institutions and the private sector, fosters collaboration across different actors, and equips young people with the tools and opportunities needed to contribute meaningfully to inclusive and sustainable development. The initiative emerged from the recognition of inequality as a pressing challenge in the Arab region. In its 2022 report "Inequality in the Arab Region: A Ticking Time Bomb," ESCWA highlighted youth unemployment as a major driver of inequality, with rates reaching 26 percent in 2021—more than double the global average of 12 percent. To address this, ESCWA convened the Arab Forum for Equality in Jordan in May 2022, focusing on empowering youth to confront inequality. The Forum culminated in the launch of the Josour initiative, which continues to grow as a regional platform for youth empowerment. Josour continues to grow steadily as a dynamic regional platform for youth empowerment. The initiative now counts more than 65 opportunity providers, with 3 national chapters established, and offers more than 400 opportunities to engage young people directly. To date, more than 13,500 youth have joined the platform.
