Youth participation
Due to the increasing interest to participate in its activities and organization, MAPP has started working in the youth field from 2014.
MAPP will involve youth in its organizational activities, opportunities for active participation in international youth exchanges, trainings, camps and conferences which are organized by the MAPP, or where MAPP is acting as a promoter.
These activities are based on learner-centred methodologies that we are developing in cooperation with our partners from other countries, according to the EU and national priorities, and it is supposed to provide to the youth possibilities to gain personal development and acquiring skills that would increase work competency and participation in decision making processes.
Reflecting on our work and analyzing the situation in Macedonia, we have detected the following several key causes for youth marginalization, and best efforts will be given to eradicate the following intergenerational poverty transfer, marginalization leading to social exclusion, established division on political grounds in the educational system and local youth councils, and underdeveloped system that would offer minimal measures to stimulate youth employability.
