Deloitte - One Young World Scholarship 2020
  • October 14 - 17, 2020
  • Full Scholarship
  • Munich

Applications are invited from young minds around the world with leadership potential for the Deloitte – One Young World Scholarship 2020 which aims at sponsoring awardees to attend the One Young World Summit 2020 at Munich, Germany.

Education is the cornerstone of sustainable development yet there are currently 1.8 billion young people (aged 10-24) worldwide and over half of this population will not have the skills necessary to participate in the emerging global workforce. The United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) clearly recognize that this gap must be closed, as the international community more explicitly addresses the challenges of quality and equity in education.

As countries around the world are dealing with some of the most unprecedented challenges of our time, including a global health pandemic and climate change, continued access to new ways of learning, and developing future-proof skills, will be critical to ensure the world is prepared to address the complex issues of today, and in the future.

At Deloitte, they are collaborating with stakeholders across the business, government and civil society to prepare 50 million lives for a world of opportunity by 2030. They are applying core skills, experience, and global reach to make an impact through education, skills development, and access to opportunity, in line with SDG 4 – Quality Education and SDG 8 – Decent Work & Economic Growth.

As a longstanding partner of One Young World, they are proud to support the Deloitte One Young World Scholarship 2020 which will enable 10 outstanding young leaders to attend the One Young World Summit in Munich, Germany on 14 – 17 October 2020.
