Today (15 July) is United Nations World Youth Skills Day 2020.
Established in 2014 by the UN General Assembly, World Youth Skills Day is an opportunity for young people, technical and vocational education and training (TVET) institutions, and public and private sector stakeholders to acknowledge and celebrate the importance of equipping young people with the skills for employment, decent work and entrepreneurship.
The COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures mean this year’s event takes place at a challenging time with many TVET institutions closing their doors, affecting nearly 70% of people in education around the world.
Chubb Social Mobility Network
Through the work of the Social Mobility Network, we are developing and promoting a culture of inclusion and equality, where access to internal and external opportunities at Chubb are open to all, regardless of background.
At Chubb we have a strong network focused on Social Mobility, powered by some passionate people. The idea really is to access a wide range of diverse talent and match them to the skillsets we need at Chubb, to drive our organisation forward. We believe equality provides opportunity.
