Czech reflection: 
Daniel Münich, IDEA at CERGE-EI

The threat of automation implies a race between education and technology. In most developing countries, education systems are not providing workers with the skills necessary to compete in today’s job markets. The growing mismatch between the demand and supply of skills holds back economic growth and undermines opportunity. At the same time, the returns to schooling are high in most developing countries, and growing skill premiums are evident in much of the world. Automation simultaneously results in deskilling and a need for new skills, and is changing what education will need to look like in the future

• Who is ready for the coming wave of automation?
• How can we prepare students for the automated world?
• What can policy makers do now to avoid major disruptions?
• What should future research focus on?

The event will be in English. Light refreshments will be served following the discussion. The event will be recorded and will be available as a video on the IDEA website.
