Why Youth is a Critical Investment

Support Them to be Ready

When demand for support is higher than ever, it can be difficult to know where to invest. Supporting young people through the Award is not just an investment in non-formal education – it is an investment in the foundational skills that young people will carry with them for the rest of their lives.

 

Your investment enables more young people to access the tools they need to adapt to increasingly rapid change and play a constructive role in society. We believe the Award framework is the blueprint for investing in human capital, strengthening resilience, improving employability and entrepreneurship, promoting global prosperity and helping the world’s most vulnerable.

...young people today must feel that upon their shoulders lie the accumulated burdens of the ages. Two dramatic discontinuities in the form of the Global Financial Crisis and now COVID-19. Added to the uncertainty of today's technology age, where work as we know it might well disappear.
