This approach helps youth see the bigger picture: the challenges, problems and opportunities that exist in society and the world of work.  While jobs and careers are likely to change, the challenges we are trying to solve will remain. In fact, as our perspective on certain issues evolves, new challenges to tackle will emerge as well. Examples of the most important challenges we will continue to face in the future include: redesigning the health care system, collecting and using big data, and managing the planet’s waste. These opportunities have the potential to create meaningful work for youth. When students identify and understand these challenges, they will open up their world and prepare to make a significant contribution to the workplace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChallenge Cards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow can we help other young people focus on challenges?
