“New Horizon” is launching the implementation of the project “Young Leaders: From Idea to Impact”, aimed at the institutional empowerment of young people from Montenegro. The project seeks to enhance their civic and leadership competencies through a bilingual non-formal education program (in Montenegrin and Albanian), the promotion of youth work, and the creation of concrete mechanisms for the active participation of young people in decision-making processes. Special focus is placed on strengthening the trust of young people from minority communities in institutions and their participation in the creation of youth policies.
During the course of the project, participants will have the opportunity to acquire practical knowledge and develop key skills for active and responsible engagement in social life through a structured non-formal training program. Planned activities include the organization of debates and simulations of decision-making processes, the implementation of a communication campaign, study visits to relevant institutions, as well as the conduct of research on the position of young people, which will result in the preparation of a local report and its public presentation. The project will be ceremonially concluded with a diploma award ceremony for participants.
Through the implementation of this project, the NGO “New Horizon” continues its long-term mission of strengthening youth capacities and creating a supportive environment for their personal, social, and professional development.
The project is implemented in partnership with the NGO “Corner of Tolerance”, within the framework of the Public Call “Youth – Creators of the Future” for the financing of projects and programs of non-governmental organizations in the field of social care for children and youth for 2025, with the support of the Ministry of Sports and Youth.
