SHAPING TOMORROW THROUGH EDUCATION

GLOBAL EDUCATION INSIGHTS

Education systems worldwide face growing challenges. We are committed to bridging that divide by investing in education; we aim to reach 1.5 million students by 2030.

WHY GLOBAL  EDUCATION?

Access to quality education unlocks opportunities. Yet in many regions, girls and women still face barriers that limit their potential and exclude them from future-ready industries. We are committed to making education more inclusive. 

 

By supporting training, mentorship, and skills development, we help remove gender barriers and open pathways into logistics and trade. Empowering young minds today ensures a stronger, more equitable tomorrow.

CLOSING THE EDUCATION GAP

Education provides opportunities, particularly for young women and girls as they shape their futures. When access to education is inclusive, entire communities prosper. 

 

At DP World, we advocate for equal access to learning. Through our Gender Equality Lens, we aim to empower one million girls and women by 2030, while also contributing 100,000 hours of employee volunteering to support education and skills development.
