In this interactive note, the third in the series "The future of Work in Latin America and the Caribbean," we combine traditional sources and new data sources to explore the impact that technological change has had on the evolution of occupations and skills demand in the region. In addition, we show the potential of a tool that works as a GPS of the labor market and that gives the opportunity for workers in Latin America and the Caribbean to detect the skills that will allow them to move from a declining occupation to an emerging one. * For a correct visualization of this note, we recommend the use of the free Adobe Reader and Flash Player programs.
