In this episode of The Do Good Podcast, Shlomy and Marc speak with Leila Toplic.
Leila is Global Program Leader at NetHope, a tech consortium of 50 global NGOs, where she heads the No Lost Generation Tech Task Force, an initiative aimed at using technology to support the needs of refugee children and youth. A refugee herself, Leila’s passion for social causes has manifested itself in a number of ways since Leila and her family fled Bosnia in the mid-90s. This included teaching English and art at the Bosnian Refugee School in the Nagyatad Refugee Camp. Prior to NetHope Leila served as the Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer at LRNG, a social enterprise that works collaboratively with schools, businesses, cities, and community institutions to redesign learning for the 21st century so all youth have the opportunity to succeed. Leila has also worked at Sama Group as the VP of Marketing and Partnerships, and before that spent over 13 years helping lead global marketing at Microsoft and Adobe.
Leila speaks to us about the work being undertaken to assist refugees. We talk about how the private sector, non-profits, and non-governmental organizations are working together to find innovative solutions to the refugee issue. And, we talk about Leila's own experience as a refugee.
If you would like to learn about the refugee crisis and what is being done to fight it, Leila gives a fantastic overview and includes many fascinating personal insights. Check out our full show notes here.
