Green and digital transitions are interconnected and mutually reinforcing, crucial for a just future. Digital technologies aid environmental management, while sustainability guides digital solutions. These transitions will create new jobs, offset some losses, and demand new skills for all.

This session will explore the essential effects of these transitions on jobs and skills, identifying required skills (digital and beyond) to mitigate climate change impacts. It will also highlight policy measures and good practices for skills development.

Moderated by Anne Shannon Baxter (GSMA), panelists include Olga Strietska-Ilina (International Labour Organization), Nanko Madu (AfriLabs), Dr. Mindel Van de Laar (United Nations University – MERIT and Maastricht University), and Robert Marinkovic (International Organisation of Employers).

Prof. Shannon Vallor, Baillie Gifford Chair in AI Ethics, explores whether machines can possess virtue for harmonious human-AI coexistence. She examines virtue's meaning for AI, its link to trustworthiness, and the role of value alignment, concluding with ethical and design challenges.

The course "All Things Have Standing," from Carnegie Council and Fighter Steel Education, draws inspiration from the "Spark Hunter" audio drama's idea that all things have ethical standing. It explores AI and environmental ethics, their psychology, philosophy, and global challenges.
