Information about organizers
MOJU(MOJU Associacao Movimento Juvenil em Olhao-Portugal) is
non-profit making, and independent of all political, syndicalism or religious affiliation. MOJU aims to
contribute to the development of a space where young people can express their opinions and
participate in decision processes, in an active and sustainable way.
We believe that youth involvement in the development of active participation in society is essential to
increase the feeling of belonging and to promote a better quality of life of youngsters in their
communities. MOJU is composed of a group of people who believe in the importance of youth
participation in building society and these four years were marked by strong growth of the Association,
now a youth mark of our city. Nowadays we have over 400 members (people over 14 years) and
many partnerships with public and private entities at local and regional level.
Armenian Progressive Youth (Armenia) is a non-profit, non-political youth organization aiming
to support, inspire and engage young people from Armenia and all over the world to develop their
social leadership skills, to take their civic responsibility and to act as change-makers.
Through different projects, initiatives and non-formal education tools we help young people to succeed,
ensuring that they develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes and competences to fit to the modern
world. We believe that progressive, educated, skillful, open-minded and engaged young people possess
all the power to become actors of change in Armenia and beyond because youth is not the future but
the present!
