Stellantis is using education as a long-term lever for social and economic inclusion, working with non-governmental partners across the world to expand access to learning in communities where opportunity is often uneven.
Through Stellantis Philanthropy, the company has co-developed more than 130 education-focused projects over the past two years, initiatives expected to reach more than two million students, educators and community members globally by the end of 2026. These programmes are delivered in collaboration with more than 100 nonprofit organisations whose local knowledge shapes how education support is designed and implemented.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, Stellantis Philanthropy positions education as a community-driven investment. Local teams work alongside NGO partners and employees to co-create programmes that respond to real needs on the ground, from early literacy and school retention to digital skills, STEM learning and vocational training. This model allows projects to remain relevant, measurable and closely connected to the realities of the communities they serve.
A strong emphasis is placed on science, technology, engineering and mathematics, reflecting the growing demand for future-ready skills in a changing global economy. By supporting education pathways linked to employability, Stellantis frames its philanthropic work not as charity, but as shared value — strengthening communities while contributing to long-term economic resilience.
Under a unified global approach, Stellantis Philanthropy brings together initiatives such as Stellantis Motor Citizens and the Stellantis Student Awards, aligning employee engagement and learner support within a single community impact framework. This consolidation aims to amplify reach, deepen impact and ensure consistency across regions.
Across North America, more than 30 projects focus on literacy, STEM education, digital upskilling and support for school-age children, with a goal of reaching one million people in 2026. In Europe, over 50 initiatives across nine countries address inclusive education, digital and vocational skills, environmental learning and autism-inclusive classrooms, targeting more than 800,000 beneficiaries.
In South America, programmes in Argentina and Brazil support school retention, job-training pathways and STEM education for an estimated 250,000 students. Across parts of Africa and the Middle East, initiatives focus on girls’ education, digital and entrepreneurial skills, technical training and improved access to technology in rural areas. In India and Asia Pacific, projects support vocational training, school-based STEM programmes, road-safety education and environmental learning.
Employee participation plays a central role in this ecosystem. Through Motor Citizens, Stellantis’ global volunteer programme, employees contribute time and skills to community initiatives in partnership with local organisations. Participation continues to grow, with significant increases in volunteer numbers and hours recorded over the past year.
The Stellantis Student Awards further reinforce a culture of learning by recognising academic achievement among students connected to Stellantis families worldwide. Since the programme’s inception, thousands of learners have been supported, reflecting a long-term commitment to education that spans generations.
By centring education within its philanthropic strategy, Stellantis is demonstrating how corporate resources, employee engagement and NGO expertise can converge to create lasting social impact. The approach positions education not only as a social good, but as a foundation for dignity, opportunity and sustainable development across the communities where the company operates.
