Timon Drewes was invited to Berlin to the Federation of German Rural Youth (BDL) e.V. to give a presentation to the “Jugend macht Politik” working group on how the world of work will change and which skills will be relevant for employees in the labor market of the future. A particular focus was on the influence of artificial intelligence (AI) on the world of work. The ideas were discussed together with the working group and reflected on considering the challenges in rural areas.
