Quarterly Impact Awards recognize individuals, teams, and departments who go beyond their day-to-day responsibilities at ACDI/VOCA. Please join us in congratulating Impact Award recipient Milica Beljan, MEL & communications specialist for our Big Small Businesses Project in Serbia (Velika mala privreda), for consistently demonstrating exceptional dedication, and collaboration, and making significant contributions that have positively impacted the project and organizational goals. In her own words: "Working as a MEL and communications specialist, I enjoy gathering data that I analyze and transform into stories. It provides me with a genuine insight into the development of all activities within the project, allowing me to track them from start to finish. What I particularly value is witnessing firsthand the positive changes these activities bring to the development of our SMEs. Another aspect that makes my job more interesting is the brilliant, transparent, and flexible team that is full of support! Congrats, Milica! 👏
