We are committed to ensuring that everyone in the Young World has access to quality education that unlocks their full potential, thereby generating vast social and economic value.

Demographic shifts, climate change, technological advancements, economic transformations and epidemiological trends in Africa and the Middle East have altered population dynamics and subsequently health risks. As countries become wealthier and as populations age, health risks are evolving and non-communicable diseases are on the rise in the Young World.

The case to invest in nutrition is strong, not only as a moral imperative—saving lives and preventing disabilities - but also for building human capital and driving economic growth. Good nutrition, particularly in women and children, lays the foundation for a productive, thriving society.

We are dedicated to optimising social protection and child protection systems to promote human development within the Young World. Social protection encompasses a set of policies and programmes designed to shield individuals from poverty and mitigate risks to their livelihoods and well-being.

We understand the paramount importance of investing in water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH) to enhance public health, improve educational outcomes and stimulate economic growth. Access to clean water, adequate sanitation and hygiene facilities is essential for preventing diseases, promoting health and ensuring a productive society.

We are dedicated to optimising humanitarian finance to build resilience, respond to emergencies and support recovery. Our work focuses on disaster risk finance, disaster risk reduction, anticipatory action, financing emergency responses, and strengthening systems in humanitarian settings.
