SERBIA YOUTH LEADERSHIP PROGRAM
This program supports the development of democracy and citizen activism
in Serbia by providing youth (aged 15-18) and adults (teachers or community
members who work with youth) with a opportunity to participate in projects
focused on civic education, leadership, conflict resolution, and community
activism. The four-week, U.S.-based projects include workshops, hands-on
community service activities, site visits with community organizations, and
discussion groups. Activities are based both in school and in the community
and involve as much interaction with American peers as possible. Homestays
are also important part of the exchange experience.
World Learning in cooperation with Civic Initiatives is administering this
project.
The competition for 2007 is now CLOSED. For further information about this program, you may still visit:
