The JustJobs Network is an applied research organization finding evidence-based solutions to one of the most pressing challenges of our time: How to promote better work in a rapidly changing 21st – century economy? We produce research on good job creation and workforce development, focusing our work on the critical knowledge gaps in the employment landscape.
JustJobs convenes a global network of diverse stakeholders—including policy shapers, academics, and grassroots leaders — to deepen the practical implications of our research endeavors and amplify their impact. Through the combination of cutting-edge research and global knowledge sharing, we aim to forge a fresh, dynamic channel for policy dialogue on employment at national, regional and international levels.
