In this session\, we will explore two case studies in which social impact programs bridge the skills gap by leveraging the scale of traditional talent development systems in the face of rapidly accelerating mega-trends.  \nNationSwell\, in collaboration with the International Youth Foundation (IYF)\, invites you to join an informed and dynamic discussion about the biggest talent risks facing employers today\, what future-ready skills truly look like\, and how companies can design workforce strategies that go beyond technical training to develop adaptable\, problem-solving talent. \nThis session is part 1 of a 3-event series called Impact x Talent\, cohosted by NationSwell and the International Youth Foundation. The series is exploring scalable and sustainable workforce development strategies that create shared value for businesses and communities. The ultimate goals of the series are to: \n\nDevelop a playbook of case studies featuring firms that have aligned impact strategies to talent challenges at the firm and sector level; and\nIdentify opportunities for joint action to move the needle on shared workforce challenges.\n\nTo encourage open and candid discussion\, this event follows the Chatham House Rule – attendees may share insights from the conversation but cannot attribute statements to specific individuals or organizations.

Despite progress in electric vehicles and sustainability\, industries like electric power and transportation still account for 76% of carbon pollution\, and worsening wildfires are exacerbating the problem. \nTo combat this\, Coupa and NationSwell have launched the Equal Air Collaborative\, a platform to unite leaders across sectors and focus on solutions for air pollution. Businesses are encouraged to contribute as well\, since polluted air not only harms health but reduces worker productivity and causes billions of lost workdays globally.  \nInnovative technologies like AI and big data have the potential to improve air quality monitoring and predictive models\, but as with all technological solutions they must be used responsibly and cognizant of the potential environmental harms they themselves cause. The business sector must consider the impact of AI-powered products on air quality\, ensuring that both innovation and environmental health are prioritized for a sustainable future.  \nJoin Coupa\, NationSwell and the World Economic Forum’s Alliance for Clean Air to discuss the innovative models and approaches that businesses are spearheading and investing in to combat air pollution. \nTo encourage open and candid discussion\, this event follows the Chatham House Rule – attendees may share insights from the conversation but cannot attribute statements to specific individuals or organizations.
