ABOUT US
Future in Our Hands ” Youth non-governmental
organization’s general idea is to carry out socially
useful activities. The members of the organization are
mostly youth (students, high school pupils, etc...) and
specialists of working with youth and children, united
around the idea of promoting education and European
awareness among the youth and generally among the
society, supporting people, helping people with fewer
opportunities in their social integration, making youth
participation in public life more active and
strengthening the principles of civil society and
democracy.
We put emphasis on working with youth from rural
areas as well as youth with trauma,stress and conflicts
at home or in their communities trying our best to
involve them in our local and international projects,
working with their parents separately.
The main objectives of the organization are:

EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELDS OF:
REFUGEES & MIGRANTS Being a youth NGO, we believe
that it is our responsibility to involve youngsters coming
from difficult backgrounds and youth with fewer
opportunities into active social life, as well as to address
their issues to the society. A huge part of these youth are
either migrants or refugees, and their voices deserve to be
heard. Our initiative regarding this topic were to write and
implement the projects called "Rhythms of Unity" and "Raise
Your Voice" in 2017," and "Be the Change" in 2019. In a lot
of our art related projects as well we had this topic as one of
our main objectives. We used photography and video editing
to raise the issues that refugees face all over the world, and
helped the society to become more tolerant, be more aware
of what obstacles the refugees in their country face and how
they can be of help. Since the above mentioned projects
were so impactful, we are working on a follow up project
which is called "Let's speak".
SOCIAL INCLUSION & ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP
THROUGH ART There are many ways to raise social
awareness and address important things to the
society, and arts can be easily one of the most
efficient ones. We have an experience of using this
great tool with all its forms: dance, music, theater,
street art, craft, drawing photography and film-
making. In 2016 we hosted the project called "Tram of
Art" and the project was so successful that the
youngsters involved came up with another project
called " Art Bridge to Tolerance" which took place in
2017. Later on we had yet another project called "Art
Bride" in 2019, and during all of these we used art
forms to raise topics such as hate speech, tolerance,
European values, prejudice, stereotypes etc. In 2019
we hosted a project with our Irish partners called "
Step Up", during which we gathered youngsters
interested in dancing under the same idea: to promote
social inclusion and active citizenship through dance.
The participants came up with a public event, which
helped spread awareness about such projects and
encourage local youth to be more active in the social
lives of their communitie

EXPERIENCE IN THE FIELDS OF:
ENTREPRENEURSHIP & YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT In the field of Entrepreneurship
and Youth Unemployment our experience and passion is very high. We have noticed
that youngsters have the tendency to hide their potential of leadership because of
the lack of self-confidence, selfesteem, experience and attention. To guide and help
the youth to unlock their true potentials as well as become more eligible for the
employment market, we have successfully implemented the projects Startup
Boomergang in 2018 and StartUP Battle in 2020. We have pending training
courses like Job Opportunity Booster, Your Footprint in Tourism Boost Your
Startup, which are all concerning this very topic. On a local level as well our
organization has been giving opportunities to future entrepreneurs who don't know
how and from where to start their business journey, by facilitating a training course
called Marketing Club.
SPORTS HEALTHY LIFESTYLE Sports
and Healthy lifestyle has always been
quite an important topic for us. Living in a
day and age where youth is always quite
passive, gives preference to fast and not
much quality food, we can see that it
highly affects their not only physical but
also mental well-being. In order to
motivate the youth to make better health
choices , live a healthier and more
physically more active lifestyle we
implemented the Get Active Get Healthy
Get Involved YE in 2018 and Healthy
YOUth YE in 2019. During the latter, we
had a big event called Sportlandia which
aimed to spread awareness about the
benefits of healthy lifestyle and physical
activity among local youngsters. This year
as well, we touched upon this topic by our
project Healthcare Trends
