During April and May 2013, 9 workshops for informing young people on the EU were held in 3 high schools in Sisak-Moslavina County. The workshops are part of a project “Youth for EU”, funded by the EU IPA INFO 2011 Program. The project leader is LDA Verteneglio while LDA Sisak is implementing partner for Sisak-Moslavina County.
The aim of the workshops was to inform young people on the EU, disseminate useful information for young people that will help them to be prepared for new challenges and to be aware and familiarised with all possibilities that the EU is providing to young people
They gathered 65 students from High School Topusko, Economy School Sisak and Techical School Sisak.
Participants took part in the EU Quiz as a qualification for further participation in the project activities, among many is a 6-day camp for young people taking place in Istria in September 2013, that will gather 30 young people.
During the project implementation youngsters from 3 Croatian Counties (Sisak-Moslavina, Osijek-Baranja and Istria) will work on development of a policy paper “Voice of youth” to be presented to decision makers and youth policy creators.
