This ILO report sheds light on the changing demand for skills in digital economies and societies, mainly on the basis of a literature review, supported by a set of case studies from low- and middle-income countries. It explores different approaches to measuring digital skills and addresses the impact of digitalisation on skills and related policy recommendations. It shows that while digitalisation can vary considerably across countries and sectors, its impact on jobs and skills is significant everywhere.
The report contributes to a better understanding of the impacts of digitalisation on key skills and helps to address the crucial challenge that skills and lifelong learning systems should respond to the rapid pace of technological and structural changes brought about by digitalisation.
