Mission and objectives
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated.
There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on
equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.
Context
Passport to Earning (P2E) is a flagship skilling platform which will provide young people (15-24 years old) with free, job-relevant skills, and position them for job opportunities. It is a Public-Private-Youth Partnership (PPYP) hosted by UNICEF, through Generation Unlimited and co-founded by Microsoft, which aims to connect youth to opportunity by upskilling them towards entrepreneurship, employment and social impact. P2E is planned for roll-out to 10 selected countries, with India as one of the pilot countries.
Facilitated by YuWaah and UNICEF India Country Office, P2E will be implemented in the India with the aim of impacting 5 million underserved and unemployed youth by building government capacity to provide long-term sustainable solution to skilling and employment.

2. Partnerships with content owners who would like to make their courses available
