4th Meeting

The 4th Meeting of CIAK was held on the 13th of December 2012. The group met in front of the National Education Central Office and headed for the Directorate for Sports and Youth of Muratpasa.

In the search for the systems to raise the quality of integration of youth into the politic and democratic life, we came across with the directorate which is responsible for all kinds of sport and youth activities. And before this year, they were more concentrated on Sports and Sporting Clubs but this year, they have opened their Youth Centres.

We wanted to search, learn and get involved into the activities organised by this govermental  organisation which is supported by the state but also working with an association framework. 

The participants of the group wanted to get registered for the Volunteer Activities and their contacts have been realised.

Two of them are going to work as Youth Representatives of their school, announcing Youth Local Activities/Organisations/Panels/Competitions and others to the other young people at their school. Two others registered for a Youth Research tour to take place in January 2013, to the Eastern Part of Anatolia bordering with Georgia.

As the young people asked/learned and inquired they found many interesting activities they can get involved and they also need to work as a representative of the local body at the social youth groups they belong to.

This can be taken as a big step to increase the representation skills of the CIAK participants, they, as the more young people they represent, the more their skills of representation will improve.
