Anacej

The purpose of this non-profit making association is to promote children and youth involvement in local decision and their interaction with local elected people, as well as to assist town halls and councils in the creation of youth councils.

Youth councils
Children and Youth Councils enable 7 to 25 years old to be actively involved in the everyday events of their town, county or region. They put forward ideas and suggestions and undertake activities to enhance the life quality of inhabitants.
Numbers have been steadily on the increase since the beginning of the 90’s. In 1992, there were 400 councils, today there are more than 1800. The Anacej groups together over 450 of them.
