THE EUROPEAN YOUTH INFORMATION DAY, 17 APRIL, CELEBRATED IN OHRID

(Ohrid, 17 April 2012) The Coalition of youth organizations SEGA in cooperation with the Youth Council – Prilep (member organization of SEGA), joined the European campaign “Information right now – Young people are asking” implemented by ERYICA (European Youth Information and Counseling Agency) in partnership with the Council of Europe. The campaign will be implemented in the period of April to November 2012.

Aiming to this in Prilep, Bitola, Ohrid, Tetovo and Tearce were organized meetings with the Presidents of the Municipal Councils, as key decision makers at local level.

The idea is youth to be informed about the work of the Municipal Council, to be introduced in its functioning and role in the decision making processes targeting youth. At the meetings young people had the opportunity to ask everything in their interest and concern. The campaign aims to raise awareness among young people, decision makers and media on the special role of youth information with regard to young people’s access to rights and – eventually – on the access to information as a right in itself for all young people.

In occasion of the European Youth Information Day, the President of the Municipal Council of Ohrid, Dushko Jakovcheski, met representatives of the Youth Parliament of Ohrid. At the meeting they discussed about the jurisdiction of the Municipal Council, the openness of the municipality to the youth, the cooperation with the Youth Council and the possibilities of youth participation in decision making processes. Unfortunately, common conclusion was that youth information within the local self-government doesn’t function and that is a field of common interest and opportunity for joint activities.
