し is a conjugative suffix, it's an ellipsis of して.
して is hypothetical form of する.
する means do.

し is する that means "do" in English.
する can change to します, して, し。
して, し mean "do and"
- Japanese
In this case, it is a conjugated form of "する".
In this sentence, "て" is omitted in "努力をして".
As you may understand, this sentence means like "it is the world required to work, struggle more, and acheive more."
