In a world that is becoming increasingly digital and dynamic, it is critical that we ensure that all members of our society have access to opportunities for growth and development. We are pleased to announce that we have expanded our local coalition, which aims to promote employment, lifelong learning, and career development for people aged 55+.

On 27.08.2024 Sofia Development Association (SDA) and YoungTalents came together to sign a memorandum marking the beginning of an important collaboration. Given the demographic context of an aging population both domestically and globally, our goal is to create a supportive community of stakeholders working together to promote sustainable, transparent and socially responsible management and business practices. Svetlana Lomeva, Director of SDA, and Georgi Parvanov, Director of YoungTalents, signed a memorandum marking the beginning of this significant initiative.

Through various trainings, programs and events, our local coalition is working to overcome stereotypes and barriers to employment and career advancement for older adults. We believe that by promoting diversity and inclusion, we can create stronger and more innovative communities where everyone has the opportunity to unleash their talents.
