High-quality and accessible information and education remain a challenge for all countries around the world. There is today a deep social inequality impacting education and the employment system. One of the first causes of college dropout is the lack of or inadequate information on college and career opportunities.

This is even more pronounced when one considers 21st century jobs, where education is the key to foster inclusive growth and give everyone a fair opportunity to succeed. It is very important to provide the younger generations with the most appropriate tools to become a change maker and to play a key role in the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
