Public consultations to support student organisations: directions for action and future initiatives  

On February 4, at the Chisinau Municipal Youth Center, public consultations on the Support Program for Student Self-Governance Organizations took place. The event brought together representatives of student organizations, providing them with a space for dialogue to contribute to the development of a more effective support framework.

During the consultations, several essential directions of action were outlined for strengthening the capacities of student organizations:

• Methodological assistance for the effective development and management of student projects so that organizations can implement impactful initiatives.
• Non-formal learning workshops focused on developing leadership and organizational management skills. These will include modules such as:
  • Communication and team management
  • Fundraising and project writing
  • Lobbying and advocacy techniques, conflict mediation
• Organizing a Hackathon dedicated to the development and implementation of student self-government initiatives, giving young people the opportunity to turn ideas into concrete solutions.

These initiatives aim to strengthen students’ involvement in decision-making processes and provide them with the necessary tools to develop their academic communities.

This year’s public consultations are a continuation of the efforts started in the previous year, when proposals and recommendations were collected from student organizations and youth structures. The next steps are aimed at implementing the ideas discussed and developing new opportunities for students.

For more information about the program and upcoming activities, young people are encouraged to follow the official announcements of the Chisinau Municipal Youth Center.
