Ahlström Collective Impact (ACI), a joint responsibility initiative by a group of companies and foundations, will continue supporting UNICEF’s global education efforts in 2025 and remains committed to advancing children’s rights in business. This year, Ahlström Collective Impact’s contribution to UNICEF’s education work amounts to over €750,000. Support from the private sector is critically important in today’s increasingly complex global landscape, where cuts by several donor countries to international aid threaten UNICEF’s global efforts to uphold children’s rights.
