Nestlé is commemorating the tenth anniversary of Nestlé Needs YOUth, an initiative that was introduced to enhance the employability of young individuals during a period of soaring youth unemployment in Europe.
Over a decade later, the initiative has expanded globally and assisted more than five million young people, including farmers and entrepreneurs, in building essential skills and in taking advantage of career opportunities. In its Nestlé Needs YOUth impact report, Nestlé features stories of people who have benefitted from the program.
“Our goal is to help 10 million youth access economic opportunities by 2030, and I am proud of the impact we have made so far,” said Laurent Freixe, Nestlé’s CEO for Zone Latin America and founder of the Nestlé Needs YOUth initiative. “In this decade of experience, we have learned to continuously adapt to the evolving challenges we face, both as a business and as global citizens. We renew our commitment to supporting present and future generations for a sustainable future.”
