Thousands of people lost their jobs during the COVID-19 period, and many of us had to reinvent or acquire digital skills to re-position on the job market.
In this 4th session of the #ApartButUnited webinar series, the event explored:
- What are some of the core aspects of re-valuing know-how and skillsin this historical moment?
- How can we explore opportunities to reinvent, while acquiring key abilities to navigate extremely uncertain times?
- What are some of the skills and know-how that are growing in valuefor communities and society across the world, and how can we nourish them?
3 experts were invited to answer these questions, and shed light on some of the most impactful examples of re-valuing know how, ready to be re-applied.
Thursday July 9th at 6 pm WEST (London time).

New frameworks require new ways of how we measure impact
