With children born today having a very realistic expectation of living to 100, Emma Birchall explored what it takes to live a happy, healthy and productive 100-year life – and the critical role of education every step of the way.
She argues that we must drastically rethink what it means to learn, work and retire in this new context. Crucially, we will need to equip the next generation of talent with the skills, capabilities and mindset to thrive in a world characterised by more options and greater disruption than ever before.
