1.8 BILLION FUTURES: HOW TO SECURE THE LONG-TERM HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF ADOLESCENTS AND YOUNG PEOPLE WORLDWIDE

1.8 Billion Futures: How to Secure the Long-term Health and Well-Being of Adolescents and Young People Worldwide

 

Today’s 1.8 billion adolescents and young people are growing up in a world that is dramatically different from previous generations. It is a world shaped by digitalization, urbanization, and mobility. These changes offer unprecedented opportunities, including access to services and information, learning, employment, and connectivity that fosters and nurtures relationships. However, they also present new challenges, such as the increased risk of depression and anxiety, exposure to (often gender-based) violence and abuse, or experiences of poverty and unhealthy lifestyles, which affect young people’s health and wellbeing now, throughout the course of their lives, and as parents of future generations.

 

In support of the 1.8 Billion Young People for Change campaign, securing the health and well-being of today’s adolescents and young people requires urgent efforts and deliberate collaboration, investment, and partnership. In this focus on our collective future, everyone has a role to play.

INNOVATIONS IN ACCESS: HOW TO EXPAND OUR HEALTH CARE WORKFORCE THROUGH DIVERSE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS

The current medical industry has the most advanced levels of knowledge and treatments in history, and great innovations are imminent. Yet this potential is squandered in the absence of health care workers. 130 countries report a shortage of physicians, and more than 150 have a shortage of nurses and midwives. However, lay health workers, such as community health workers, doulas, birth attendants, mental health advocates, and others have the potential to transform health systems and address workforce gaps. As trusted members of the community, lay health workers provide a wide range of services from routine examinations to birth and pregnancy support, and they often work in the most rural and remote areas, caring for underserved populations. To mitigate the detrimental impact of this labor shortage, we must integrate all health worker roles into health care systems and pay them a living wage.

FUNDING EARTH’S FUTURE: HOW TO SCALE CLIMATE FINANCE IN FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES

The financial investment to mitigate the climate crisis is staggering with the greatest need in frontline communities. While ongoing conversations are focused on who will bear this immense financial burden, we must support leaders who are taking creative and innovative steps toward climate resilience. Inaction is not an option when there are opportunities to develop partnerships with organizations that have shovel-ready projects and to scale innovative financing models that mobilize capital. There are adaptation and mitigation efforts happening all over the world, yet capital remains a key missing piece.

JOURNALISM ON THE FRONTLINES: HOW PROTECTING FREEDOM OF THE PRESS SUPPORTS ALL HUMAN RIGHTS

The media’s ability to deliver news to the public and hold institutions to account has been increasingly under assault, as seen in the imprisonment of the Wall Street Journal’s Evan Gershkovich or the 67 journalists killed globally in 2022, including for coverage of climate change. Threats to the freedom of press span the globe — from censorship in the United States and removing girls from schools in Afghanistan, to the murder of protesters in Iran and half of all journalist deaths occurring across Latin America, often for covering issues such as deforestation or polluters.

 

Our ability to tackle the greatest global challenges depends on a strong and healthy media and an environment that encourages, not restricts, the free exchange of ideas and information. Journalism probes vital issues and their daily impact on people – from the devastating effects of climate change, conflicts and threats to democracy, systemic challenges in our global health and economic systems, and more. A free press is the leading indicator of the health of democracy where ideas blossom, markets thrive, and people are empowered to make fact-based decisions. And yet, journalists are operating under historic pressures – including actual harm and physical threats.

 

This session will examine how journalists handle emerging challenges and solutions that demand their attention; how they handle threats to their profession and their livelihoods; and how we can support a vibrant journalism sector.

 

Includes special remarks by Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton.

THE FUTURE OF AI IS ALREADY HERE: HOW TECHNOLOGISTS AND SKEPTICS CAN WORK TOGETHER TO BALANCE THE BENEFITS AND RISKS OF AI

From precision medicine and applications in complex emergencies to deepfakes and generative AI, the benefits – and the risks – of artificial intelligence are widespread and must be managed responsibly. Despite increasing concerns about its governance, artificial intelligence is an emerging reality across nearly every facet of our daily lives. From precision medicine and applications in emergencies to deepfakes and proliferation of misinformation, the benefits – and risks – of AI are widespread and must be managed responsibly. It is estimated that AI could eliminate 300 million full-time jobs, but AI could also enhance our productivity and creativity by optimizing complex processes. Governments, the private sector, and NGOs will need to cautiously balance the tremendous potential AI presents with its challenges and dangers to best leverage this emerging and rapidly growing technology and industry.

INNOVATIONS IN ACCESS: HOW TO EXPAND OUR HEALTH CARE WORKFORCE THROUGH DIVERSE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS

The current medical industry has the most advanced levels of knowledge and treatments in history, and great innovations are imminent. Yet this potential is squandered in the absence of health care workers. 130 countries report a shortage of physicians, and more than 150 have a shortage of nurses and midwives. However, lay health workers, such as community health workers, doulas, birth attendants, mental health advocates, and others have the potential to transform health systems and address workforce gaps. As trusted members of the community, lay health workers provide a wide range of services from routine examinations to birth and pregnancy support, and they often work in the most rural and remote areas, caring for underserved populations. To mitigate the detrimental impact of this labor shortage, we must integrate all health worker roles into health care systems and pay them a living wage.

Some 400 educators from across the state and nation converged on Des Moines July 10 through 12 to learn how to revolutionize teaching math in their classrooms. Educators learned about Cognitively Guided Instruction, or CGI, which is a professional development program aimed at making mathematics – particularly for those in elementary school – more readily understandable to each and every student. The CGI event, co-hosted by the Iowa Department of Education and Iowa State University’s Center for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Education, focused on teaching techniques to help children understand how math is applied in the world, in addition to understanding how to use the mathematical procedures. The overarching concept behind CGI is that each student learns in different ways.

STORY STUDIO: REPAVING ROADS: PAVING A PATH TO UNITY AND HEALING DIVISIONS

We don’t need to listen to statisticians or political pundits to know the roads that once brought us together to unite us in the face of our most significant challenges are now in disarray. What we need is to repave our roads — in every sense. By pushing past our divisions and reminding ourselves of our shared values and potential for shared prosperity, we can begin to forge new pathways and repave old ones to bring us together once again. In this session, you’ll hear stories from people repaving roads toward unity.

FUNDING EARTH’S FUTURE: HOW TO SCALE CLIMATE FINANCE IN FRONTLINE COMMUNITIES

The financial investment to mitigate the climate crisis is staggering with the greatest need in frontline communities. While ongoing conversations are focused on who will bear this immense financial burden, we must support leaders who are taking creative and innovative steps toward climate resilience. Inaction is not an option when there are opportunities to develop partnerships with organizations that have shovel-ready projects and to scale innovative financing models that mobilize capital. There are adaptation and mitigation efforts happening all over the world, yet capital remains a key missing piece.

STORY STUDIO: REPAVING ROADS: PAVING A PATH TO UNITY AND HEALING DIVISIONS

We don’t need to listen to statisticians or political pundits to know the roads that once brought us together to unite us in the face of our most significant challenges are now in disarray. What we need is to repave our roads — in every sense. By pushing past our divisions and reminding ourselves of our shared values and potential for shared prosperity, we can begin to forge new pathways and repave old ones to bring us together once again. In this session, you’ll hear stories from people repaving roads toward unity.

THE FUTURE OF AI IS ALREADY HERE: HOW TECHNOLOGISTS AND SKEPTICS CAN WORK TOGETHER TO BALANCE THE BENEFITS AND RISKS OF AI

From precision medicine and applications in complex emergencies to deepfakes and generative AI, the benefits – and the risks – of artificial intelligence are widespread and must be managed responsibly. Despite increasing concerns about its governance, artificial intelligence is an emerging reality across nearly every facet of our daily lives. From precision medicine and applications in emergencies to deepfakes and proliferation of misinformation, the benefits – and risks – of AI are widespread and must be managed responsibly. It is estimated that AI could eliminate 300 million full-time jobs, but AI could also enhance our productivity and creativity by optimizing complex processes. Governments, the private sector, and NGOs will need to cautiously balance the tremendous potential AI presents with its challenges and dangers to best leverage this emerging and rapidly growing technology and industry.

LEVELING THE FIGHT AGAINST CANCER: HOW TO FORGE INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIPS IN HARD TO REACH PLACES

We have never had more knowledge about or better treatment options for cancer. However, despite these incredible medical advances, cancer continues to claim the lives of more than ten million people each year, in part because these lifesaving treatments are not equitably available to all populations. Mortality rates are declining in the wealthiest countries while lower- to middle-income countries are seeing increased rates of cancer without access to the latest breakthroughs in modern oncology to treat patients. While limited resources are a concern, there are opportunities for wiser investments and increased coordination and partnerships between governments, health policy analysts, and community organizations to begin to bridge the care gap and bring lifesaving treatments to underserved populations and communities.

INNOVATIONS IN ACCESS: HOW TO EXPAND OUR HEALTH CARE WORKFORCE THROUGH DIVERSE COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS

The current medical industry has the most advanced levels of knowledge and treatments in history, and great innovations are imminent. Yet this potential is squandered in the absence of health care workers. 130 countries report a shortage of physicians, and more than 150 have a shortage of nurses and midwives. However, lay health workers, such as community health workers, doulas, birth attendants, mental health advocates, and others have the potential to transform health systems and address workforce gaps. As trusted members of the community, lay health workers provide a wide range of services from routine examinations to birth and pregnancy support, and they often work in the most rural and remote areas, caring for underserved populations. To mitigate the detrimental impact of this labor shortage, we must integrate all health worker roles into health care systems and pay them a living wage.

It's been a really long time since I have been able to just sit down and play with Paint Shop. I'm not the worlds best artist, but this is done entirely using Corel's PSP. I Did this just for the fun of it. I got the idea from watching some guys years ago do a painting similar to this using only spray paint, some small tools, and a poster board. They were able to do their picture in about 10 minutes, mine took much longer.
