Skilling Youth for Jobs and Challenges of the Future
As we navigate through the escalating complexities of climate crises, global conflicts, and the transformative AI revolution, the MOZAIK FOUNDATION is at the forefront of cultivating an inclusive ecosystem dedicated to future-proofing our youth. Our mission extends beyond merely imparting skills; we are committed to nurturing visionary leaders equipped to innovate and steer us toward a brighter, more sustainable future.
Our Belief
At Mozaik Foundation, we believe in the extraordinary potential of today’s youth to tackle the pressing challenges of our era, including the climate crisis, escalating conflicts, and the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence. These formidable challenges are not just issues to be solved; they represent an opportunity to align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals – our guiding lights. By empowering the next generation, we’re not just reaching milestones; we’re crafting new realities.
Our vision
Imagine Bosnia and Herzegovina as a beacon of entrepreneurial spirit, a place where skilled young innovators are not merely participants but leaders and creators of change. Our vision extends beyond fostering local projects or global enterprises; we’re igniting a movement. Here, technology serves a greater purpose: crafting a sustainable future. In this vision, youth are the architects, seamlessly integrating the SDGs into society’s very fabric, bringing to life a sustainable and equitable world.
Preparing for the Future of Jobs
Guided by insights from the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs reports and the UN SDGs, our ecosystem is a forge of future readiness. In an era increasingly dominated by automation and artificial intelligence, our focus extends beyond mere skill-building. We’re nurturing a mindset of adaptive innovation and encouraging cross-sectoral collaboration. Our goal is to develop a workforce that is not just resilient, but revolutionary — a collective of individuals who not only adapt to change but drive it. These emerging leaders serve as role models, inspiring and guiding others as they pave the way toward a sustainable and equitable world.
Impact Role models
Our impact is measured not just in numbers but in the pulse of change we’ve catalyzed: over 4,000 youth-led community projects, 57,000 dedicated volunteers, and more than 350 startups with social impact. Behind every number is a face, behind every statistic, a story or a role model. These youth role models are the heartbeat of our strategy, the living proof that our youth are not waiting for the future—they are passionately co-creating it.

KEY RESULTS OF THE MOZAIK SYSTEMIC PHILANTHROPY
Since 2020, through a systematic approach, we have: exempted food donations from VAT, published a unified list of community kitchens, and laid the groundwork for an upcoming electronic platform for donations, all in order to reduce hunger and the senseless waste of food.
