170 million jobs created, 92 million displaced: what the employers surveyed say.

Read the full analysis
Transcript

What do employers say about jobs by 2030? Here are the World Economic Forum's figures, from a survey of over one thousand companies.

One hundred and seventy million roles created.

Ninety-two million displaced.

A net gain of seventy-eight million. But they are not the same roles, or the same people.

The fastest-growing skills are artificial intelligence and big data,

networks and cybersecurity.

And human skills stay central: analytical thinking and collaboration.

One limit: these figures are global. They do not describe Cameroon, or any one African country. The full analysis is on nangmo dot org.
