FedEx and INJAZ Al-Arab to “empower youth for a transformative future”

Students gain hands-on experience in critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity from FedEx in the UAE

Ahead of International World Youth Skills Day 2023 on July 15, FedEx Express and INJAZ Al-Arab, a member of Junior Achievement Worldwide are uniting to empower the youth of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia, through mentorship programmes, making a lasting impact on their futures.

According to UN statistics, there are about 1.2 billion youth between the ages of 15–24 years in the world, with the number expected to increase 7% by 2030. Through collaborative mentorship programmes, FedEx and INJAZ Al-Arab have reached more than 1,350 students across the UAE and Saudi Arabia.

The programmes are tailored to equip students with critical workplace skills, build financial literacy, and provide an understanding of entrepreneurship and innovation.

In the UAE, students gained hands-on experience in critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and creativity through interactions with FedEx team members, preparing them for a successful career.

FedEx has been supporting Junior Achievement Worldwide globally for more than 40 years, championing the development of technical, soft skills, and career-ready skills in youth to succeed in their professional journey. This collaboration with INJAZ Al-Arab reinforces the company’s commitment to empowering the next generation with the right tools and resources, contributing to the transformative future of regional economies.
