Together We Can Go Further: Citizens for Change no. 10, jubilee issue dedicated to cooperation

byCivica Mobilitas

The latest issue of Civica Mobilitas’ “Citizens for Change” newsletter is the tenth, jubilee issue. The basis of our work, of what CSOs do, is cooperation, which is the main theme of this issue.

In the articles, we inform you about examples of cooperation of the Macedonian Institute for Media (MIM) and the National Council of Disability Organizations (NSIOM), Legis and the Reception Centre for Asylum Seekers to develop a mentorship programme for improvement of the possibilities for employment of the asylum seekers, Metemorphosis Foundation and eight organizations with which they prepared the openness index. You can also read about Civica Mobilitas Festival “Day of CSOs”, which was used as a platform for several new cooperations. Polio Plus signed a Memorandum of Cooperation with the Commission for Prevention and Protection from Discrimination, and the civil sector received a Code for CSOs signed by 52 organizations so far, which was also promoted at the event.

Apart from this, we also spoke about the main contribution of the civil society in the last 30 years since the independence of the country, and along that line there is also the analysis of Finance Think pertaining to unemployment, salaries and gross domestic product. Megjashi presented the results of the new report on the SOS Phone for Children and Youth, and Borka – for Each New Day organized the traditional pink walk whose main message was that “Cancer Patients Must not Be Forgotten because of the Pandemics”.  The activities of the Regional Green Centre from Ohrid mobilized 170 young people in actions for environment protection, and Organization of Women from Lozovo trained the textile workers.

Besides “Citizens for Change”, we would encourage you to also read “Mental Health” newsletter, issued by the Misla Association – Mental Health CSO.

This is only part of the contents of the pages of the jubilee issue of Civics Mobilitas newsletter.

The latest issue can be read in the Macedonian, Albanian and English language.

“Citizens for Change” is a newsletter for the civil society and of the civil society. Be part of it, send us information about your activities and results.

Write, read and share for a stronger civil sector.
