Youth Achieve Program
Youth Achieve program of Junior Achievement Greece is part of the ACE (All Children in Education) programme. The programme “All Children in Education” is a UNICEF initiative in collaboration with the Ministry of Migration and Asylum, implemented in collaboration with a number of partners, with co-funding from the European Union.
Youth Achieve includes several online educational tools that aim to prepare the underage refugee hosts of the accommodation centers for the labor market and education in Greece, as well as the relevant culture regarding work, education, and professional orientation.Â
