At the All-Ukrainian Youth Forum, which was held in the city of Berdiansk, representatives of 13 regions of Ukraine identified the model of municipal youth policy as the most appropriate to the needs of youth and local communities. The author of this document is Vadym Heorhiienko, a member of the working group of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on youth policy development, founder and head of the Odesa Youth Council. \n \nDuring the Forum, an initiative group was created, which launched All-Ukrainian Action No. 1 for regional and municipal youth leaders of Ukraine "FIND OUT!". The purpose of the action is to familiarize local and regional youth leaders, as well as representatives of local self-government bodies and the media with the model. \n \nFor the leaders of the youth movement of Volyn, a presentation of the above-mentioned model was organized by the Center for Municipal Reforms "Lutsk-1432" and the Association of Young Reformers with the assistance of Deputy Mayor Anatolii Parkhom'iuk. About 25 representatives of the youth movement gathered in the session hall of the Lutsk City Council. According to Anatolii Parkhom'iuk, "The dynamics of community development can be preserved only under conditions of active innovative activity of youth, for which the Lutsk City Council is trying to create favorable conditions." \n \nAccording to the organizer of the event, Serhii Adamchuk, the model of municipal youth policy, which is already being implemented in cities of Ukraine, changes the usual perception of youth policy, provides an answer to the question of how to create a truly powerful youth movement in every city, regardless of its specifics and region. The model is very practical and detailed for its implementation. The initiative group is confident that modern youth policy, formed according to such a principle, should ensure, within the complex of the country's strategic development, the geopolitical competitiveness of the Ukrainian state, give an impetus to the development of local communities and society over the next 10-15 years. \n \nResearchers of the youth movement claim that regional youth leaders of Ukraine demonstrate the capacity and desire for independent coordinated actions. The action "Find Out!" is probably the first action in Ukraine carried out at the own expense of young people: no political party or international organization has any relation to the conduct of the action. \n \nYouth leaders of Lutsk must decide for themselves whether it is worth using the model of municipal youth policy in working with youth, noted Serhii Adamchuk. \n \n
Leaders of youth organizations are offered a new model of youth policy
