COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE<\/p>\n

TOKYO, April 16, 2026 \/PRNewswire\/ — Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9 announced the renewal of its three-year global partnership with UNICEF, marking a new phase of commitment to empower an additional 7.3 million girls. With a total pledge of US$17.4 million since 2019, this represents the largest private sector contribution to UNICEF’s Global Gender Equality Program that aims to accelerate positive change for adolescent girls. To date, the partnership has already supported 12.9 million girls worldwide, significantly surpassing the partnership’s original expectations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With the renewal of its third term, programs supported by Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9 will expand beyond a sole focus on STEM to place greater emphasis on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), integrating art and creativity as complementary forces alongside science and technology. In Indonesia, for example, girls participating in project-based learning initiatives are already combining scientific knowledge with creative expression to develop innovative solutions to enhance climate resilience.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Witnessing how this partnership has transformed the lives of the girls \u2013 inspiring confidence, creativity and new possibilities for their future \u2013 made the decision to renew our commitment an incredibly meaningful one,” said Naomi Kawanishi, Global Brand President\u00a0of Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9. “We are particularly excited about the focus on STEAM, empowering girls not just with technical knowledge but with the creative confidence to become true innovators. This is how we help unlock their full potential.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The renewal builds on the strong foundation of impactful programs with innovative STEM learning initiatives already providing a breadth of opportunities for girls through the partnership.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“UNICEF welcomes Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9’s continued leadership on gender equality and deep commitment to empowering girls,” said Carla Haddad Mardini, UNICEF’s Director of Private Sector Fundraising and Partnerships. “Our renewed partnership, and expanded focus on strengthening critical STEAM skills, is a powerful investment in girls as changemakers who have a powerful role to play in shaping our future.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Critical Need for Continued Investment[1]
\n\u00a0<\/p>\n

This renewed commitment comes at a crucial time. Globally, girls continue to face significant barriers to education and skills development. 122 million girls remain out of school, and nearly 40 percent of adolescent girls and young women do not complete upper secondary education. Girls are also underrepresented in STEM and digital fields, accounting for just 35 percent of STEM graduates and 3 percent of ICT graduates, while nearly 50 million girls lack basic literacy skills. In low-income countries, around 90 percent of girls remain offline, limiting access to learning and opportunity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These challenges are driven by intersecting barriers \u2013 including harmful gender norms, child marriage, and unpaid care responsibilities \u2013 underscoring the critical need for sustained investment and gender-responsive approaches that enable girls to gain the skills and opportunities necessary to build their futures.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Through this renewed collaboration, Cl\u00e9 de Peau Beaut\u00e9 and UNICEF will continue working together to expand opportunities for girls worldwide and support the next generation in realizing their full potential.\u00a0<\/p>\n
