A special thank you to colleagues who made distinctive contributions to the development of this report: Genesis Elhussein, Project Specialist and Ilaria Marchese, Data Specialist. Additional thanks to our colleagues in the Education, Gender and Work System Initiative, including Piyamit Bing Chomprasob, Rigas Hadzilacos, Elselot Hasselaar, Valerie Peyre, Pearl Samandari and Lyuba Spagnoletto. 

This report would not have been possible without the support of our colleagues across the Forum’s Business Engagement Team, Centre for Global Industries and Centre for Regional and Geopolitical Affairs. In particular, we would like to express our deep appreciation to Nour Chabaane, Emma Skov Christiansen, David Connolly, Renee van Heusden, Nikolai Khlystov, Julien Lederman, Wolfgang Lehmacher, Tiffany Misrahi, Andrew Moose and Julia Suit in the Forum’s Centre for Global Industries. In the Centre for Regional and Geopolitical Affairs, expansion of the report’s geographical coverage was made possible by the support of Elsie Kanza, Bertrand Assamoi, Nontle Kabanyane and Dieynaba Tandian for the Africa region; Justin Wood, Oliver Hess and Thuy Nguyen for the ASEAN region; Liam Foran for Australia; Martina Larkin, Anastasia Kalinina, Anna Knyazeva, Verena Kuhn, Rosanna Mastrogiacomo and Mark O’Mahoney for the wider Europe region, Denise Burnet and Fabienne Chanavat for France and Michèle Mischler for Switzerland; Sriram Gutta and Suchi Kedia for India; Joo-Ok Lee for the Republic of Korea; Marisol Argueta, Diego Bustamante and Ana del Barrio for the Latin America region; and Malik Faraoun and Teresa Belardo for the MENA region. Finally, a special thank you to Oliver Cann and the World Economic Forum’s Media and Publications team for their invaluable collaboration on the production of this report.

We gratefully acknowledge the excellent collaboration with LinkedIn’s Economic Graph team under the leadership of Sue Duke, with contributions from Nick Eng and Kristin Keveloh.

A special thank you to Michael Fisher for his excellent copyediting work and Neil Weinberg for his superb graphic design and layout. We greatly appreciate the work of design firm Graphéine, which created the cover.
