Projects - The Voices of the Youth in Mass Media for the Healthy Life Style

The project is being realized jointly with the United Nations Children’s Fund Office in Belarus and the youth social organization “Center of Support and Development of the Youth Entrepreneurship”.

The project is focussed on healthy life-style formation in the youth environment and aims at involvement youth into such activities. The basic objective of the project is to help the youth to perceive and understand the necessity to support and strengthen personal health and thus defining health as the most important priority in provision of sustainable development.

The youth is singled out by the project as the most perspective age category with respect to the healthy life-style formation, which favors the sustainable development.

On the eve of the XXI century, when the today’s youth will be responsible for decision-making influencing the future of our country, region and the whole planet, it is very important to give the youth a possibility to exhibit themselves, thus, in our opinion, to obtain experience in realization of their ideas and in decision-making. That is why the project provides possibilities for the youth to pitch, discuss and develop their ideas as well as to realize their stories in practice, overcoming the obstacles, striking vigorously for success thus receiving experience of their projects implementation. That is how we understand the notion “participation of the youth” and this is how we realize it.

We understand that the project of this kind is a new event for our country which used to be a part of an empire for a long time, where such natural for the whole world notions as personal initiative and personal opinion was persecuted. We understand that we all together learn to be independent and responsible for the decision taken and we will be sincerely glad to any responses, wishes and remarks.

We would like to express our gratitude to professional teachers, editors and producers of the television, who excellently implement their task of consultants in the project providing necessary information, knowledge and advice.

Listen to the voices of the youth!

Hoping to the future collaboration!

Very sincerely yours,
Sergey Bolshakov,
Manager of the Project “The Voices of the Youth in Mass Media for the Healthy Life Style. Youth Journalism”
