With the support of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the Institute for Youth Development KULT is celebrating the annual International Youth Day under the slogan “Get Involved!” by encouraging youth all over the world to get involved in social trends and take action to improve their position.
There are 67.1% of unemployed youth in our country, 43% of youth believe that their standard will remain the same or will worsen in the future, 85% of youth acquire information on sexual and reproductive health on television. Every 6th young person is interested in political participation in the society, and 4 out of 5 youths wish to leave Bosnia and Herzegovina.
By enacting and realising the document on Youth Policy of Republika Srpska for 2016 – 2020 and Youth Strategy of FBiH for 2016 – 2020 and with participation of all relevant actors that aim to improve actions and development of youth, a clear answer is being provided to the questions and challenges youth encounter. Symbolically, on International Youth Day, youth in our country will be introduced with the suggested solutions that will include the stated strategic documents and invite them to an active participation in their development and implementation.
International Youth Day in Sarajevo will be celebrated on Wednesday, 12 August, from 10 to 12 am. You are welcome to join!
