Last update: 30 October 2024

Information providers / counceling structures
 

Forum MNE in co-operation with the Centre for Vocational Education (Ministry of Education) has completed the process of recognizing the vocation of Youth Activist (on a European level equal to Youth Leader) which has significantly contributed to the professionalization and awareness- raising about youth work. The vocation of Youth Activist was accredited by the Ministry of Education in March 2017, and since then, two generations have attended the programme for attaining the vocation of Youth Activist.
 

Awareness raising initiatives
 

Forum MNE is supporting awareness-raising about non-formal learning through introducing and advancing service learning in Montenegro as an educational concept for both community and youth development. Service learning is an educational method that combines learning objectives and curricula with community service in order to provide pragmatic, progressive learning for youth while contributing to community development. So far, over 100 young people have planned and implemented 23 community projects and built their capacities through non-formal education within various projects and initiatives.
