EDU 1.0 Social Impact Fund is a response to the pressing social and economic challenge in the form of a constantly increasing competence gap in the job market. We need students to make educational and professional choices with the awareness of their strengths and the needs of their future employers. Quality of career counseling services provided in schools should be improved, while increasing the prestige of the counseling profession and raising awareness of counseling among students and their parents.
EDU 1.0 was built for Poland but it can be easily replicable to other CEE markets. It is contributing to SDG 4 (quality education) and SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth).
