Ureed.com has partnered with community development organization Ruwwad to train and equip marginalized communities with the skills needed to enter the freelance workforce
The two organizations will train and support 250 talented youths (aged 18-35) pooled from marginalized groups in Jordan, including Syrian refugees and women, as well as graduates from Ruwwad’s scholarship program. The training seeks to open up its beneficiaries to the ever-expanding world of online working, and in turn alleviate the pangs of the pandemic that has been raging worldwide.
With inclusivity in mind, 50% of the training opportunities will be awarded to women (15% Syrian refugees), a group that has been reported to bear the brunt of the difficulties of Covid-19. The training will equip them with the vital skills needed to make headway in the competitive world of online freelancing.

Satisfy your ESG requirements by hiring inclusively
What is ESG?
An environmental, social and governance (ESG) framework has become key for the growth of businesses across all fields, especially those looking for funding and investments (yes, startups, we’re talking to you!). Investors across the world are now required to prioritize funding to businesses adhering to ESG standards. But what does ESG really mean? Let’s break it down:
.01
E—environment
The impact your company has on the environment. Think carbon footprint, chemicals involved in manufacturing processes and sustainability efforts that make up your supply chain.
.02
S—social
How does your company have a social impact on communities, both within the company and outside of it? Social factors include everything from gender equality, racial diversity, and inclusion programs and hiring practices.
.03
G—governance
How does your company’s board and management drive positive change? This factor tackles management’s attitude, leadership and overall treatment of employees and shareholders. It looks at things like equal pay, equal opportunities and potential corruption
*This initiative helps you implement both the ‘S’ and ‘G’ factors in ESG.
