Redefining Success and Wellbeing for a Post-pandemic Career in International Development (Virtual Registration)

Join us virtually on November 4, 2022 at 4:30 PM ET for this event. If you would like to attend in-person, register here

As the world emerges out of the pandemic, young people find themselves transitioning into a world of work that has been redefined. Many see mental well-being and individual empowerment as key ingredients for success. For young people around the world, the traditional and linear career path from formal education into formal employment is no longer relevant or has been disrupted due to school closures or changing employer requirements that increasingly focus on skills and practical experience over degrees and certifications. Participants will hear from a diverse panel of experts which will include young people, about diverse educational and work trajectories in international development, the role of mental well-being, and the importance of how we define success along with how development can be a more inclusive profession.

Registration will close at 4 PM ET on Wednesday, November 2, 2022. Meeting details will be sent to all registered participants shortly thereafter.
