Macedonian – Albanian Youth Cooperation

About the project:
Local Development Agency Struga in cooperation with the high school “D-r Ibrahim Temo” from May 2010 implemented the project activities of the project Macedonian – Albanian Youth Cooperation.

Life Skills Program will be on the project and will focus on increasing self-esteem, critical thinking and ability to solve problems. We will use experiential learning where young people will be involved in an active way. Through experienced instructors, youth will easily reach the answer to the questions:
  • Who am I and what can I do?
  • What are my personal, family and social values?
  • How to communicate with other people?
  • What does the community do for me?
  • What are my goals?
  • How can I bring good decisions?
  • What are the stereotypes and gender roles?
  • How to deal with prejudice?
  • How are resolved conflict situations?
The students can use their skills a positive impact on peers and promote respectful educational environment. Through intercultural youth sessions young people will be able to share their cultures with each other and learn about different cultures from their surroundings. Through the sessions we will get a clear picture of how young people use their leisure time, the ethnic division of youth during the exits in the city and ways to overcome this trend.

With photo workshops students will master the basic skills of professional photography and will gain knowledge of the history of photography.
