2021 HIGHLIGHTS

Clé de Peau Beauté is supporting UNICEF's programs in Bangladesh to promote gender equity in the education system, alleviating gender-related barriers to education and reducing gender-based violence.

In partnership with the Government of Bangladesh, UNICEF is following a systematic approach to strengthen gender equity in the education system by providing technical support to develop a skill-based curriculum, which has been approved by the Prime Minister of Bangladesh.

UNICEF has implemented an Alternative Learning Program in Bangladesh for the most vulnerable out-of-school adolescent girls, linking them to apprenticeships and job training with theoretical and foundational skills.

1,100 girls have enrolled.

Clé de Peau Beauté is supporting UNICEF's STEM4Girls programs in Kyrgyzstan to empower girls to pursue a professional education and careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and beyond, in order to address existing gender disparities that include high unemployment rates among women and a prevalence of child marriage.

621 girls have been trained to be role models and peer educators for younger girls in their communities.

In turn, these peer educators have successfully reached over 16k peers.

81 percent of participants have reported that these sessions helped them identify their professional path in STEM.

155 girls entered University to study STEM, 39 percent with a tuition grant.

Clé de Peau Beauté is supporting UNICEF's programs in Niger, where more than 1.3 million girls are out of school, to promote new opportunities for adolescent girls by helping them to develop relevant competencies and skills.

The partnership supported 900 secondary school girls in mentoring groups to strengthen their basic skills in mathematics and French.

About a third of these girls had dropped out of school but were successfully brought back to school through the mentoring program.

24,956 girls and women benefited from a campaign and workshop on overcoming gender stereotypes and promoting their wellbeing.

Through the Gender Thematic Fund that Clé de Peau Beauté supports, UNICEF funded a study in China to assess STEM skills of adolescents.

The study led to recommendations for practical strategies to strengthen STEM education for adolescents in rural, ethnic minority communities, adolescent girls, and adolescents with special needs.

Through the Gender Thematic Fund, support by Clé de Peau Beauté, UNICEF Vietnam is working with young people to develop accessible digital learning solutions.

In 2021, the program trained over 29,000 adolescents in digital and transferable skills for employability.

The program also trained teachers to address stigmas, stereotyping, and gender-based violence.

Through the Gender Thematic Fund, girls in Peru were at the center of designing a module on web development and management which will be institutionalized and integrated into the national curriculum.

To compliment this program, UNICEF ran a high impact campaign to promote STEM for girls and young women - reaching over 6 million people.
