SINGAPORE, Sept. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Vantage(https://www.vantagemarkets.com/), the international multi-asset trading
platform today announces its
partnership(https://www.vantagemarkets.com/esg/unesco/) with UNESCO (United
Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organisation), as a part of its
social commitment to strengthen education opportunities to emerging markets
like India.
Within this partnership, Vantage is supporting the "State of the Education
Report for India, 2022 – Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education," which was
launched today in New Delhi, India. The Report covers a number of pertinent
issues at the intersection of AI and education, including the potential of
artificial intelligence to empower teachers and enhance our understanding of
the learning process.
Commenting on the partnership, Marc Despallieres, Chief Strategy & Trading
Officer at Vantage, said, "Our global footprint and presence in emerging
markets has provided us with a unique perspective into the issues faced by our
communities. We aim to foster a long-term, strategic partnership with UNESCO
that rests on the foundations of our shared values – inclusion and equity. As a
financial services provider, lending our support towards emerging technological
developments in education, such as on AI in education and on digital literacy
initiatives to students and learners in India, was a natural first step to take
on this education journey."
Talking about the role of artificial intelligence in financial inclusion, Eric
Falt, Director and UNESCO Representative to Bhutan, India, the Maldives and Sri
Lanka, said, "While the world may be on the fence about AI, this much is
certain that AI is here to stay. With the rise of ICTs and digital banking
platforms, AI has made financial inclusion a reality in India. Financial
education and skilling are key to improving the economic and social well-being
of people, especially women. In light of the same, we are very happy to partner
with Vantage who share our commitments."
Vantage's partnership with UNESCO New Delhi brings together two organisations
with a shared aspiration to ensure that no one is left behind. In the coming
years, Vantage aims to leverage its financial and technological expertise to
provide support for UNESCO's education initiatives in India, by increasing the
accessibility of teaching and bringing the benefits of education to those who
need it most.
Vantage's strategic partnership with UNESCO marks another milestone in its
corporate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) journey, which was
formally launched in July 2022 . Vantage has been collaborating with popular
digital media producer Supercar Blondie to raise awareness on climate change
and women's empowerment during the week of the Extreme E race in Sardinia,
Italy. In addition, the company has undertaken several other ESG activities
this year, including a dollar-for-dollar matching fundraising exercise in
partnership with the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) and
a global blood donation drive across their offices.
