On 7 October 2021, the Center for Democracy Foundation organised a debate on the subject: Alternative Report on the Local Employment Action Plan for Youth - Zrenjanin - Youth and Employment.

The debate was organised within the framework of the Reforms Beneficial to All project: Public Participation Toward Better Public Policies and Sustainable Socio-economic Development, implemented by the Center for Democracy Foundation, with the support of the Open Society Foundation Serbia.

2018 - 2021 Local Employment Action Plan for Youth - Zrenjanin is a document used to implement public policy aiming to improve the quality of life of youths. The purpose of creating the Alternative Report with focus on the youth segment and their employment was to monitor the current state and any potential changes, as well as to analyse whether certain public policies have yielded results.

The Report was presented by the Association for Women's Labour Rights (ROZA), and participating in the discussion were representatives of local self-government, activists, local CSOs, representatives of the CDF etc.

One of the objectives of the project was to improve CSO capacities in local communities in terms of implementing and monitoring the effects of public policies of importance to the local community.

Within this project, the Center for Democracy Foundation prepared the following guide: Guidelines for measuring Social Impact of Public Policies - Download in PDF (in Serbian).
