‘25 Years Young': A Celebration of Youth and 25 Years of Action
Founded in 1999 under the aegis of the Fondation de France, the Schneider Electric Foundation supports changemakers driving sustainable development, promoting social inclusion, and empowering
communities worldwide. Throughout 2024, the foundation will celebrate the world's youth by raising awareness of their social and environmental impact and mobilizing the support of company
employees. The high point of these celebrations is the launch of a global call for contributions with the foundation's social entrepreneurship partner, Ashoka.
Ever since its creation, the Schneider Electric Foundation has been a pioneer in supporting positive initiatives to tackle growing social challenges and many innovations are driven by young people from around the world. The foundation is honoring them on its 25th anniversary by supporting their future, our future, helping them to make an impact for a fairer energy transition.
