YOUTH RESOURCE CENTRE
Decision for funding and registration of this kind of centre was came on base of outstanding needs of youth. Namely, most of NGO's in Bosnia and Herzegovina was working in cooperation with international organisations/institutions, but that kind of help is debilitate and youth organizations are leave to themselves. Most of them doesn't know what to do in that situations and very soon they stop to work. This is mostly aim on youth organisations in smaller places around Bosnia and Herzegovina, which without adequate help, are not able to fulfil basic needs of young people. Taking into consideration this situation and problems we decided to establish Youth Resource Centre (ORC) Tuzla which will, on adequate way, offer support and help to all youth organisations which have problems in work. In January 2004 was held inaugural assembly of Youth resource centre Tuzla.
