If this world is mad, I truly hope it is for good! We've done some office work today and I honestly enjoy it, because it was about me - my hopes, my goals, my impacts, me, me...! My EVS about me!
But what about Mad world? It is about Wednesday afternoon at Satama youth center.
Some Finnish politicians or some kind of the that people were seriously expected to visit the center, but they didn't show up at all. Politicians are too busy for youth work!? I don't think so. Don't they have children? Why not think about it?
I wasn't acquaintant with the Finnish youth policy (something like this, in general http://www.youthpolicy.org/factsheets/country/finland/), which seeks to support young people’s growth and independence, employment, non-discrimination, gender equality, education and health. I didn't even know I belong to youngsters, according to that Finnish law - it defines youth as those under 29 years of age.
What I understood is that its purpose is to encourage young people to become responsible members of society and help them participate in decision-making processes and international activities.
I am part of all this now, thanks to doing an EVS in Finland.
Unfortunately, there is no such law in Bulgaria. We don't have youth centers. It is worse - we build malls :( Dissapointing... Mad world...
