EdTech Center Western Balkans has been established by education experts and practitioners who have united around the idea to improve the quality of education for all students from the Western Balkans in the 21st century.

We see a future where all young people have access to the highest quality of education and where they can develop skills that will help them improve the quality of their lives and communities in the 21st century. We focus our work several areas, including:

  • Development of human capacities in a knowledge-based economy through the improvement of digital skills and competencies of employees in education. We support education professionals to develop digital skills of student and to prepare them for world of tomorrow.
  • We improve the quality of the education system by smarter and better use of information and communication technologies at all levels of education. We do not believe that every technology deserves to be used by teachers and students. This is why we supports schools on how to user technology they already have and if they aim to procure new administration and teaching aids, how to that in order to increase impact and value for money.
  • We support development of accessibility, openness, efficiency and equity of education through the use of innovative technologies. Innovation and technological development have important role in creating new opportunities for learning for everyone, including people with disabilities.
