Panel 1 — Keynote Speech: The Role of Education and Lifelong Learning in the Future Economy

The Institute of Policy Studies (IPS) held its annual flagship Singapore Perspectives (SP) conference on 5, 9 and 16 January 2023.

The theme of this year’s conference is “Work”. The conference examined how disruptions and trends in technology, socio-economic developments, and Singapore’s own demographics shaped the future of work here. The pace of technological change, such as in automation and augmentation, is expected to lead to the displacement of many jobs even as new ones are created. How can Singaporeans prepare for this labour landscape, in which no one can expect to stay in a single job or occupation throughout their working lives? How should the labour movement adapt to remain relevant to workers? What can the state do to revitalise our social compact and help ensure that Singaporeans will continue to have viable and decent work? How will these various forces transform the type of work we do, the way we work, the meaning of work, and the roles of various stakeholders?
