Workshop: Healthy relationships

Through the “Life Skills” program funded by the European Endowment for Democracy, the NGO Naša akcija, in cooperation with the NGO Prima, held a workshop on “Healthy Relationships” for the youth of Kotor and Tivat at the Youth Club Kotor.
The workshop focused on issues such as:
Is this love or fear of loneliness?
How do I know he loves me, and how do I know if he loves me too?
What is ok and what is not ok in a relationship?
How do I show love and does the loved one experience it that way?
Is my partner showing me love in the right way?
Your I in a relationship
Love is also belonging, where should individuality be preserved? i
Do you distinguish love from possessiveness?

In addition to the workshop, this activity provided an opportunity for young people from Tivat to visit and see the Kotor Youth Club and socialize with their peers in the area. For young people, mobility, socializing and exchanges are rare in this age of pandemics, but the possibility of connecting young people in this way in the Youth Spaces is a real opportunity that our NGOs plan to continue to use.

Functioning of the organization in the corona times.

In recent weeks, due to Covid restrictions on movement and assembly, we have not been able to perform our regular activities, which are planned for this month. Consequently, we focused on smaller, humanitarian activities in the local community as much as our resources allow. So in the past few days we donated food and / or medicine packages and thus provided for single mothers and pensioners in the local community of Škaljari and Muo. We thank all the donors, especially the young members of the new group of the Youth Club Tivat, who participated in this activity with our NGO.

Time management workshop

Activities, Trainings

A step into the world of adults, a step from primary to secondary school, then from high school to college or work requires much more responsibilities and skills than the education system transfers to young people. That’s why we’ve been talking about time management skills for the past few days to keep young people productive and successful. Time management is one of the most important skills we need to master throughout life because it is the key to satisfaction in professional and personal life. NGO Our action through the support of the European Endowment for Democracy continues the education of young people through the program “Career education and employability of young people”.
