 Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here because it's such a highly relevant topic, skilling, reskilling, upskilling. I'm Sheila Jagannathan. I work for the World Bank and head of the open running campus which is really a learning ecosystem with two goals. One, to ensure that our staff in about a hundred countries across the globe are cutting edge on all of the thematic areas such as health, education, competitiveness and so on. But more importantly since World Bank is engaged in in many many initiatives with country clients helping put systems into place and providing financing as well as knowledge and capacity building on key development challenges such as skilling of youth, health systems for the poor, solid waste management and other urban development challenges. So the overall goal is you know you might ask the question why is the World Bank interested in learning and capacity building. We believe that some of the quickest way to accelerate solutions to complex development challenges is through learning, knowledge sharing and capacity building. So that's the background of why I'm here. I think it's a great opportunity for staff to network with the emerging country partners who are working in the area of skilling and education both academia, industry partners as well as private sector and NGOs. So I think where I'd like to see so a we're able to network and share knowledge and learn from each other so that's a great opportunity but also test realities on the ground. On one end we are talking about disruptive technologies, AI, blockchain. Let's see what the realities of the ground are, what's working, what's not working, what could be improved. Also learn from failures so that we fail fast and apply the lessons learned. So I think this is a great learning experience for all of us. We know that you know the shelf life of skills is becoming shorter and shorter and the World Economic Forum actually states that shelf life of skills is only about four years and at the same time we are also aware due to the fourth Industrial Revolution that there is going to be I mean you know children and youth need to be trained for jobs that we don't even know exist today. So we and at the same time in this in this sort of coexistence between man and machine some of the what I call the three C's or the four C's the creativity the the compassion the critical thinking these are the skills that are going to be very important so one of the areas I'd like to see addressed in this conference as well as how are the various initiatives of skilling also addressing these very urgent skill transformations.
