Partnering for prosperity: education for green and inclusive growth; Global education monitoring report, 2016; summary Year of publication: 2017 Author: Sachs, Jeffrey D Corporate author: UNESCO. Director-General, 2009-2017 (Bokova, I.G.) This Report makes three messages starkly clear. Firstly, the urgent need for new approaches. On current trends only 70% of children in low income countries will complete primary school in 2030, a goal that should have been achieved in 2015. We need the political will, the policies, the innovation and the resources to buck this trend. Secondly, if we are serious about SDG 4, we must act with a sense of heightened urgency, and with long-term commitment. Failure to do so will not only adversely affect education but will hamper progress towards each and every development goal: poverty reduction, hunger eradication, improved health, gender equality and women’s empowerment, sustainable production and consumption, resilient cities, and more equal and inclusive societies. Lastly, we must fundamentally change the way we think about education and its role in human well-being and global development. Now, more than ever, education has a responsibility to foster the right type of skills, attitudes and behavior that will lead to sustainable and inclusive growth. 
YouthXchange: green skills and lifestyles guidebook Year of publication: 2016 Author: Ryder. Guy, Steiner. Achim Corporate author: UNESCO | United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) | UNESCO. Director-General, 2009-2017 (Bokova, I.G.) The YouthXchange Green Skills and Lifestyles Guidebook fills this gap. Developed by UNEP and UNESCO, in collaboration with the International Labour Organization (ILO), this Guidebook helps young people connect the talk about the green economy, green societies and green jobs to theirlifestyles. It focuses on the skills required to make these transitions – providing case studies and insight on green jobs and the skills they will require in terms of social innovation and entrepreneurship, the role of different stakeholders (government and private sector) and life skills. Young men and women are already driving change across the world. We must provide them with the skills they need to create new lifestyles and develop green jobs. Building a green future must start with training and education. It must start by listening to young people, by engaging their creativity and acting together.
