Our challenge:
Empower all with future-ready skills

In the new post-COVID world it is more important than ever to upskill and reskill people for the jobs of the future.

The global economy is projected to shrink 4% as a result of the pandemic and the need for up- and re-skilling is more critical than ever as global employment markets experience heavy disruption.

Equitable opportunities for employment are inaccessible for many across the globe, making economic mobility out of reach for those who need it most.
