World Youth Day; Optiven Limited On Empowerment Forefront

When the world marked the recently concluded World Youth Day under the theme, Inter-Generational Solidarity: Creating A World For All Ages, Optiven Limited was not left behind either. The theme which befits this important day, is meant to act as a call to action for all of us.

What has Optiven done to realize this theme in the interim?

Optiven Limited has over the years adapted United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 17 on partnership to impact society, which calls for importance of global macroeconomic stability and the need to mobilize financial resources for developing countries from international sources, as well as through strengthened domestic capacities for revenue collection.

To realize this, Optiven embraced partnerships with the likes of Fusion Capital and have enabled youth from disadvantaged backgrounds to access education.

Beneficiaries of the Soaring Eagles Scholarship Program (SESP) are found in all counties courtesy of partnership and the Education pillar of the Optiven foundation. https://www.kenyanenterprise.com/sites/optiven/article/fusion-capital-invests-1m-towards-optiven-foundation-partnership/

The Group has further embraced this goal and merged it with UN SDG goal number 8 that promotes inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment, and decent work for all.

Optiven understands that youth have a key role to play in sustained and inclusive economic growth to drive progress, create decent jobs for all and improve living standards.

This year, the Group rolled out their support for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) targeting youth seeking vocational and technical training.

The move has been made possible in partnership with the Upside Trust of the United Kingdom. https://www.the-star.co.ke/counties/central/2022-05-12-optiven-foundation-launches-sponsorship-for-tvet-learners/

Optiven Limited continues to work with the youth for the betterment of the future. Through the Optiven Real Estate arm, they have upscaled their human resource engagement by taking up management trainees, enabling them to be better prepared for the working world. https://www.optiven.co.ke/newsblogs/optiven-welcomes-management-trainees/

Through the George Wachiuri School of Mentorship, the group continues to mentor Youth in Business through practical examples from the business World.
