Public-Private Partnership in North Macedonia: Empowering Youth Through Mechatronics | RECONOMY Snippet
Helvetas, through RECONOMY, is proud to have facilitated the official partnership between the State Vocational High School “Vlado Tasevski” and Volvo Group , launched during an inauguration ceremony on 5 May 2025 in Skopje, North Macedonia.
🚛🛠️ This collaboration will introduce a demand-driven specialization in mechatronics for trucks and heavy-duty vehicles, equipping youth and adults with the skills needed for meaningful careers in a rapidly changing industry.
It’s part of Sweden’s broader commitment to green and inclusive economic development in the Western Balkans.
We were honored to host distinguished guests, including:
➡️ Ms. Danela Arsovska, Mayor of Skopje
➡️ H.E. Ms. Ami Larsson Jain, Swedish Ambassador
➡️ Mr. Jacob Granit, Director General of Sida
➡️ Mr. Johan Reiman, Director of Corporate Responsibility, Volvo Group
From demand-driven curricula and teacher training supported by Volvo professionals, this initiative will help shape North Macedonia’s green and inclusive future—and serve as a model for public-private cooperation across the Western Balkan region. 🚀
