The large-scale social transformation of a country requires not only sustained action, but also the mobilization of the public, private and development sectors. For that reason, The/Nudge Foundation takes a multifaceted approach to tackling three of India’s pressing challenges: low urban employability across one of the world’s youngest populations, the lack of rural livelihoods and the slow pace of non-profit entrepreneurial innovation. With strong partners, a high-tech approach and the latest learning about the hard, soft and life skills needed to thrive – including linguistic, digital and financial literacy – The/Nudge Foundation has already narrowed the gap between young people’s potential and their access to economic opportunity.
We invest in The/Nudge Foundation as part of LGT Venture Philanthropy’s education strategy to focus on solutions that provide high-quality vocational training to tackle the global learning and employability crisis. We provide comprehensive support across three areas:
urban youth skill trained
urban youth placed
poor and ultra-poor rural families reached
non-profits incubated/accelerated
Fellows placed with one state government
We are delighted to partner with LGT Venture Philanthropy to address the complex challenge of skilling and employment of underprivileged youth.
