Zagovaranje za osnivanje nacionalne agencije za mlade u Srbiji
Mladi u Srbiji u ovom trenutku ne mogu u potpunosti da koristi dobrobiti programa Evropske unije ''Mladi u akciji'', jer je preduslov za to kreiranje nacionalne agencije za mlade (NA). Grupa „Hajde da...“, kao jedna od kontakt tačaka za program „Mladi u akciji“, pokrenula je proces zagovaranja za osnivanje nacionalne agencije u Srbiji.
01.07.2010. u prostorijama Opštine Novi Beograd smo organizovali konsultativni sastanak (Foruma za uspostavljanje NA) sa zainteresovanim organizacijama i institucijama. Ova, prva od aktivnosti u nizu, imala je za cilj sagledavanje broja organizacija i institucija zainteresovanih za uspostavljanje NA, kao i usaglašavanje oko teksta deklaracije, koji će biti obavezujući dokument za članove Foruma na putu lobiranja za NA.
Na forumu je bilo prisutno 30 učesnika, koji su predstavljali 25 organizacija i institucija. U oktobru 2010. organizujemo konferencija na kojoj će biti prisutni predstavnici NA iz okruženja, da bi nam preneli svoja iskustva i primere modela agencije u njihovim zemljama.
Projekat finansira USAID u okviru programa "Inicijativa javnog zagovaranja građanskog društva", a realizuje Institut za održive zajednice (ISC).
Advocacy initiative for creation of National Youth Agency in Serbia
At the moment, young people from Serbia cannot fully exploit all the benefits European Commission's "Youth in Action" Programme offers. One of the main preconditions for changing this current situation is establishing the National Agency (NA) in our country. Therefore, "Hajde da..." Group, as one of the Contact Points for "Youth in Action" Programme, has started an advocacy initiative for establishing the NA in Serbia.
On July 1st, 2010, in premises of Municipality of Novi Beograd, we have organized a consultative meeting with relevant institutions and organizations (Forum for establishing NA in Serbia). This activity, the first one in the row, aimed at gathering together all the institutions and organizations that appeared to be interested in the process, as well as at making consensus on contents of the declaration, which is to be the core document of the lobbying process.
The meeting was attended by 32 participants, representing 26 organizations and institutions. We are planning to have an international conference in October 2010, where we are going to host also officials coming from the NAs from the whole region.
This project is financially supported by USAID, within its Civil Society Advocacy Initiative (CSAI) program, implemented by Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC).
