Berane became the 12th Montenegrin municipality that has a Youth Club. The reconstructed premises for the needs of young people was opened by Minister of Sports Nikola Janovic.
The money for this reconstruction was jointly provided by the Ministry of Sports and Youth and the municipality Berane.
Ministry of Sports and Youth, in the last two years, continuously worked on creating new opportunities for young people in order to improve their position, in accordance with the Youth Strategy 2017-2021.
"One of the key priorities is the opening of new and support in the work of the existing youth services, centers and clubs. Today, we have 12 youth clubs in the municipalities throughout Montenegro, as well as the Youth Center in Podgorica. With the new legal solution, the Government of Montenegro and the Ministry of Sports and Youth will continue to support the opening of new youth clubs throughout Montenegro, but also to make their work sustainable," Janovic said.
He explains that by supplementing the name of the institution in the Ministry of Sports and Youth, the Government gave a clear message that the care for the young people is a key priority and that the ministry is the right address for programmatic fulfillment of their needs.
"We expect that the representatives of all municipalities in the coming period will take care of the young people in an adequate way and that we will continue to develop programs and projects for young people together. Today's event is a confirmation that young people from the north are on the list of priorities of the Government and the Ministry of Sports and Youth," Janovic said.
The Minister also reminded that the attitude towards the youth in Montenegro will be systematically improved by the new legal solutions for the development of youth policy, which are currently in the parliamentary procedure.
