The Youth Bank Initiative team from Rivne visited Novoyavorivsk to exchange experiences with colleagues from the NGO Hostynets.
As part of the visit, they went to the community school in the village of Starychi. They met the principal and the student council, explored creative workshops and development spaces. The guests were particularly impressed by the community’s attitude towards Ukrainian culture – an incredible blend of authenticity and modernity.
The introduction to the organization’s activities was both engaging and inspiring. The hosts shared insights about their implemented and upcoming projects, exchanging experiences and future plans with their guests.
At the youth center based in the Novoyavorivsk Museum of Local History, an art master class was held – a fundraising tool for implementing Youth Bank Initiative projects.
The project “The Movement of Youth Banks in Ukraine: Promoting the Culture of Philanthropy and Engaging Youth in Civil Society” is supported by ISAR Ednannia within the “Civil Society Sectoral Support Initiative.” This initiative is implemented by ISAR Ednannia in consortium with the Ukrainian Center for Independent Political Research (UCIPR) and the Center for Democracy and Rule of Law (CEDEM), thanks to the generous support of the American people through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).
