Junior Achievement Macedonia was part of the focus group discussion organized by Fund for Innovation and Technological Development during 8-9 July 2019.

The groups have been divided by different stakeholders such as students, teachers, University professors, as well as representatives of NGOs, State institutions, educational institutions and independent experts. The main discussion topics were related to teacher qualifications, educational system, reforms and lessons learned regarding the children and youth, their education and recognition of talented children through the educational system.

This is part of FITR’s several-month initiative to develop a strategic program for encouraging creative thinking, innovation and entrepreneurship among young people – the “Young minds fund” and it is expected to bring new partnerships among organizations.
