Na veću u domu za decu bez roditeljskog staranja Centar za unapređenje društva predstavio je kolegama svoj rad i benefite rada sa malom decom i mladima koji se pripremaju da napiste sistem socijalne zaštite. Govorilo se više o projektima koje je pokrenuo naš Centar samostalno i u saradnji sa Centrom Zvezda.

Došli smo do zaključka da su benefiti mnogobrojni i da nam ostaje da se potrudimo da „velikoj deci“ pomognemo što više u procesu prilagođavanja.

Zahvaljujemo se direktorki i kolegama iz doma koji su nas ugostili na Veću.

March 31st, 2023, The presentation of programs created by the Center for Society Advancement independently and in collaboration with the Center ZVEZDA

At the council meeting in the facility  for children without parental care, the Center for Society Advancement presented its work and the benefits of working with young children and youth preparing to leave the social welfare system to colleagues. The focus was on projects initiated by our Center independently and in collaboration with the Center Zvezda.

We concluded that the benefits are numerous, and it remains for us to make an effort to assist the “older children” as much as possible in the adaptation process.

We express our gratitude to the director and colleagues from the orphanage who hosted us at the council meeting.

Dan za stručne sastanke. Jedan sastanak vodi “Centar za unapređenje društva” u saradnji sa “Zvečanskom 7” za mališane do 11 godina, a na drugom je naš Centar partner Centru za socijalnu integraciju “Zvezda” i sastanak se odnosi na rad sa mladima koji se spremaju za izlazak iz doma. Ideja je da mladi koji su bili u domu a osamostalili se, budu mentori mladima koji tek izlaze. Reč je o odličnim projektima zasnovanim na cilju razvoja veština za samostalnost ovih mališana.

Definisali smo rezultate, nedostatke i nove staze a uskoro krećemo u posetu domovima i u realizaciju projekata.

Expert team meetings held regarding projects dedicated to children without parental care

It was a day for professional discussions. One meeting was led by the “Center for Society Advancement” in collaboration with “Zvečanska 7,” focusing on children up to 11 years old. The other meeting involved collaboration between our Center and the Center for Social Integration “Zvezda,” focusing on working with young people preparing to leave care institutions. The idea is for those who have successfully transitioned from care to mentor those who are just leaving. These are excellent projects aimed at developing skills for the independence of these children.

During the meetings, results, shortcomings, and new paths were defined, and soon the teams will begin visiting care facilities to initiate project implementation.

Juče je Centar za unapređenje društva u saradnji sa supervizorom za projekat Družimo se i učimo zajedno, namenjen deci bez roditeljskog staranja, definisao izmene programa u cilju prilagođavanja životu i navikama dece iz doma Vera Radivojević u Beloj Crkvi.

Umesto individualnog rada radiće se grupno, kako bismo pokrili svih dvadesetoro mališana koji žele da nešto kreativno i zabavno rade u slobodno vreme.

Radićemo kreativne, edukativne radionice, kao i sprtske aktivnosti!

Ništa ne bi bilo moguće da se nisu uključili četvoro mladih ljudi, tačnije studenata psihologije, koji će sve dogovoreno sprovoditi u delo jednom nedeljno 12 meseci.

Defined Changes to the “Let’s Play and Learn Together” Program

Yesterday, in collaboration with the project supervisor for the “Let’s Play and Learn Together”, focused at children without parental care, the Center for Society Advancement defined modifications to the program to better align with the lives and habits of children from the Vera Radivojević institution in Bela Crkva.

Instead of individual sessions, group activities will be conducted to accommodate all twenty children who wish to engage in creative and enjoyable activities during their free time. We will organize creative, educational workshops, as well as sports activities!

None of this would be possible without the involvement of four young individuals, specifically psychology students, who will implement all agreed-upon activities once a week for a period of 12 months.
