UniCredit Foundation has recently launched the UCF Edu-Fund Platform, a €14 million euros commitment to support programmes that are dedicated to lifting young people out of educational deprivation in the markets where we operate.

The focus is on students aged 11-19, targeting early school drop-out prevention, teacher training, university attainment encouragement, and employability enhancement.
