The NGO “Great Idea” initiated the establishment of a youth center, communicated with the local authorities, and advocated for the necessity of opening a youth space in the city. They also provided assistance in the documentary registration of the institution. The organization members developed a three-year activity program for the youth center and tested it.
The goal of the youth center is to provide a free space for comprehensive youth development, including socialization and self-realization, promotion of a healthy lifestyle, engagement in activities during leisure time, provision of civic education to youth, and the development of volunteering and increased mobility of young people.
The main achievements of their work include the implementation of 220+ youth projects and events per year, as well as the involvement of over 50 permanent volunteers from among the youth in the organization’s projects.
The youth center operates from Tuesday to Saturday, from 10:00 to 19:00. The premises of the youth center consist of two rooms, approximately 30 square meters each. One room is equipped for administrative functions of the center, while the other is used for conducting youth events such as trainings, conferences, workshops, meetings, and more. All necessary equipment is available for comfortable implementation of activities both inside the premises and outdoors.
