The three-year partnership between NELT Group and UNICEF will focus on strengthening the educational systems of Serbia, North Macedonia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Angola in 2026 – some of the markets where NELT Group operates
NELT Group and UNICEF present a strategic partnership aimed at empowering children and youth to acquire 21st-century competencies. This initiative represents the most extensive collaboration between UNICEF and a Serbian company to date, with NELT Group allocating $1.3 million over three years. In Serbia, 15,000 children from 30 schools will benefit from enhanced digital skills crucial for their future success. In North Macedonia, 500 students will gain valuable experience to improve their employability, while over 8,100 students will acquire “green” skills essential for sustainable development. In Bosnia and Herzegovina, over 5,000 students will develop key 21st-century skills to prepare them for future challenges and opportunities.
“Our experiences and data show that investing in children today is the safest way to ensure a better tomorrow for all. When you invest in UNICEF’s programs and systems that help children, entire communities and economies benefit. We are extremely grateful to NELT Group for their vision, trust, and desire to achieve great things. They lead by example, showing how corporations can shape the future and make the world a better place,” said Deyana Kostadinova, UNICEF Serbia Director.
“NELT Group is committed to creating meaningful change in our communities,” said Miloš Jelić, CEO of NELT Group, adding: “Through our collaboration with UNICEF, we are strategically investing in empowering children and youth with essential 21st-century skills. These skills are necessary for understanding our times and meeting the growing demands of the job market. This partnership aims to prepare them for the challenges they will face tomorrow and ensure their readiness to seize opportunities and contribute as tomorrow’s leaders.“
