Only 7 days left to apply for the 5th eUPSHIFT workshop in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Opportunity for young people in the northeast of Republika Srpska

eUPSHIFT is an online workshop for youth teams aged 13 – 19, who are aware of problems in their local communities and want to work on solving them. Through eUPSHIFT and with the support of mentors and trainers, teams learn how to design a solution to a problem and compete for cash prizes in the amount of 3000 BAM each with which they can implement their solutions.

Young people aged 13 – 19 can apply in teams of three to five members from the municipalities of Bijeljina, Šamac, Bratunac, Foča, Zvornik and Višegrad and their surroundings. Applications are open until December 13, and the workshop will be held in the period from March 13 – 20, 2022.

In particular, young people from marginalized groups such as members of the Roma population or other ethnic minorities, young people with disabilities, young people without parental care, and young people from families of low socio-economic status are invited and encouraged to apply.
