Local Democracy Agency – LDA Knjaževac, in cooperation with the Center for Creative Development, is starting the realization of the project "Establishment of local youth volunteer info service - Info point Knjaževac".
The project will last nine months, from June 2016 to February 2017, and the expected result is a local youth volunteer info service strengthened by a new group of volunteers trained to work with their peers. The service, organized by the model ''youth for youth', will deal with the collection, selection and distribution of information about programs and services that enable the national and international mobility of young people and provide support to young people from Knjaževac when applying for participation in these programs or using such services. In addition, this service through specially organized activities will deal with the promotion of importance of youth mobility not only among young people, the potential beneficiaries in the municipality of Knjaževac, but also among their parents and teachers. It will also popularize volunteerism and youth activism through local examples of good practice.
Currently, there is an open call for the selection of five young members of the Info point Volunteer Team. Details of the call can be found on the website of the Local Democracy Agency – LDA Knjaževac (
