Collective Impact for Brighter Futures

An initiative from

Supported by

In the US one in ten young people is not in school or not in work. That’s 4
million young lives that cannot see a future. A problem today doesn’t have to
become a crisis tomorrow.

We’re building a network of Skills Friendly Cities across the United States and
launching our Big Ideas, Bright Cities Challenge. We’re asking community
organizations, city officials and business leaders to bring us their big ideas
to make their city skills friendly. Together, we’ll create a community of
practice of changemakers across cities nationwide - and award prizes and support
to help the best ideas become reality.

The Global Business Coalition for Education is a movement of businesses
committed to ending the global education crisis and unleashing the potential of
the next generation. Our mission is to ensure that every child has the best
start in life, a safe place to learn, and skills for the future. Established as
an initiative of the global children’s charity Theirworld in 2012, Global
Business Coalition for Education is committed to bringing together the expertise
and resources of the business community with the campaign for global education
and Sustainable Development Goal 4.

 

The Skills Friendly City Initiative aims to:
 1. 
    • Define and Communicate Standards by providing clarity to cities on how to
    become “skills friendly.” The initiative outlines ten standards to create a
    “skills friendly” city, including critical activities and indicators to
    cultivate an ecosystem of elements – ranging from transportation and
    infrastructure to education and healthcare – that set its people up for
    success.
    
     
    
    • Incentivize Excellence and Innovation by administering a national
    challenge that rewards innovations and aspirations. The competition will
    also encourage intra-city collaboration among city leadership, youth-serving
    organizations, businesses, and education systems.
    
     
    
    • Foster a Cross-City Learning Community by creating opportunities for
    cross-city collaboration through a learning community to elevate best
    practices, enable joint problem solving, and promote collective success.
