The Jacobs Foundation invests in the future of young people so that they become socially responsible and productive members of society. In order to achieve this goal, children and youth must be given better opportunities for positive development and equitable access to education, whatever their background, place of residence or family income. Learning is crucial for successful and productive human development and key to children’s ability to reach their full potential and fulfil their aspirations.

This is why, as part of our 2030 Strategy (https://jacobsfoundation.org/en/activity/strategy-2030/) , we have pledged to invest 500 million Swiss francs over the next ten years to provide children and youth with effective knowledge, skills, attitudes, tools and equitable opportunities to reach their full learning potential and thrive together.
