Šta su rekli o nama
SEI centar je odlična prilika za socijalno-ekonomsku inkluziju ranjivih grupa. Odličan projekat, ovaj centar će pomoći mnogima kojima je pomoć potrebna. "Ako gladnom čovjeku daš ribu, ti ćeš mu riješiti problem za jedan dan, ali ako mu daš pecaljku i naučiš ga da peca, riješićeš mu problem za cijeli život."

Sve pohvale za SEI centar u Brčko distriktu čiji rad i zalaganje predstavljaju veliki korak prema socijalnoj i ekonomskoj inkluziji marginaliziranih grupa, najprije u Distriktu, a potom i u regiji. Svojim djelovanjem podržavaju one koji su najviše u potrebi što daje poticaj razvoju stabilnog i inkluzivnog društva u ovoj lokalnoj zajednici. Samo tako naprijed 👏🏻
