Info Members: The Global Apprenticeship Network (GAN) was established in response to the high youth unemployment that resulted from the 2009 economic crash. As economies around the world gradually recovered, youth unemployment remained persistently high. During the 2012 G20 and B20 meetings, government and business leaders alike called for measures to be put in place to address the problem.
As part of their response, the International Labour Organisation (ILO), International Organisation of Employers (IOE), the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Business at OECD, established GAN Global. The organization was originally tasked with the promotion of apprenticeship to get young people into the workforce and equip them with the skills needed for work.
