Allianz has restated its commitment to implementation of the Sustainability Development Goals (SDG 8) across the globe, even as it has set aside 28,000 Euros, equal to N11.820 million under its Social Impact Fund to support youth employability in Nigeria.
The Managing Director/CEO, Allianz Nigeria, Adeolu Adewumi-Zer, made the disclosure at the 2022 Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the National Association of Insurance and Pension Correspondent held in Lagos.
She said over the next three years, Allianz will donate 28,000 Euros (N11.820 million) in Nigeria to provide disabled persons with digital skills that will enhance their ability to earn a living.
This donation, she said, will be made from the Allianz Social Impact Fund which is dedicated to the implementation of Sustainability Development Goal (SDG 8) in many countries around the globe.
SDG 8 recognises the importance of sustained economic growth and high levels of economic productivity for the creation of well-paid quality jobs, as well as resource efficiency in consumption and production.
