YOUTH AS COMMUNITY RESOURCE
Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Oct 20, 2014 PROJECT  FINISHED 

In this project we are focusing on urban communities / problem zones, especially those who have poor employment / social opportunities for young people. A great number of middle large cities have great economical problems because of lack / reduction of industry production. This influences on decrease local community as well private sector budget for youth, social, cultural, educational or sport programs. Moreover it's put young people on the street, increase criminal behavior among youngsters or migration in large cities / other countries in search for better life. The CONSEQUENCE of this is extinction of small / middle large cities.
