Under the auspices of the UAE Ministry of Economy and the UAE Ministry of
Climate Change and Environment, Nestlé and INJAZ UAE announced the winner
of the inaugural Sustainability Heroes Award. This youth-centered initiative has
equipped more than 200 university students across the UAE with the skills and
mentorship to develop innovative sustainability solutions.

Kleva, composed of students from University of Sharjah, took top honors for their
project,- a dynamic project-based learning platform providing students and young
professionals with real-world experience before formal employment. Their
proposal stood out for its originality, viability, and potential to create measurable
social impact. The winning team will now begin internships with Nestlé, gaining

hands-on experience and access to further mentoring opportunities to help refine
and scale their solution.

Over six months, students engaged in a“Learning by Doing” format emphasizing

entrepreneurship, business acumen, and real-world impact. At the heart of the
program is the INJAZ UAE Company Program, which transforms classrooms into
start-ups. Students worked in teams to develop business solutions addressing
real sustainability challenges while learning from each other and industry
professionals.
