Description

An established multifunctional centre for children and youth will create not only opportunities for full leisure time, but also for work with children, young people, and key adults (teachers and youth workers). The youth club, which is to be reconstructed, will be the space where children will not only spend their free time but will also learn tolerance and non-discrimination. It aims to prevent racism or extremism, which is excessive in the district. By creating a full-fledged program, the project will contribute to increasing and strengthening the competencies of children and young people at risk of social and economic exclusion. The multifunctional center will include the Pôjd (Loft) educational center, which will be used for non-formal and experiential education, inspiring, innovative, and coworking activities. By building a training center, it will contribute to raising awareness of non-formal education, but it will also create a space for informal activities that address prevention programs such as awareness-raising, tolerance-oriented activities, working with the media, and media literacy, as well as activities aimed at cyberbullying or inclusion.
