In today’s fast-paced world, ensuring that students gain essential skills is crucial for social engagement and reducing inequalities.
Despite efforts, one in five EU 15-year-olds struggles to meet basic standards in key subjects, and Europe faces severe teaching shortages. The COVID-19 pandemic further widened educational gaps, leading to increased dropout rates with long-term impacts on employment and social inclusion.
To address these issues, UniCredit Foundation launched partnerships with Teach For All and Junior Achievement Europe, and is sustaining local initiatives, aligning with its mission to tackle educational inequalities across UniCredit regions.
This dual approach enables UniCredit Foundation to drive systemic progress while fostering innovative, targeted solutions that address local challenges and support students where they need it most.
