Grab a coffee and join us for a short and informal session with Martine Humblet and Sergei Soares, co-authors of the new International Labour Organization (ILO) report on “Working from home: From invisibility to decent work”.

Over the last year, the global workforce has experienced a massive shift to online remote work enabled by digital transformation and radically accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic. As the phenomenon of remote working matures, the ability for workers to provide services in other nations – Telemigration – could become an increasingly viable development pathway.

In partnership with Colombia + Competitiva, the TASC Platform has been exploring the potential for digitally enabled service exports, or Telemigration, to become an important aspect of Colombia’s internationalization in coming years.

With Richard Baldwin, Jeisson Cardenas and Cristina Fernandez to discuss the background, methodology, policy recommendations and potential broader applications of this new research.

The Future of Work is facing massive, simultaneous, and interconnected disruptions, made more acute by the impacts of COVID-19. In this context, the second Future of Work Summit encouraged the international community to think ahead from crisis to change.
