  1. Htela sam samo da napomenem da Srbija nije Youth In Action Programme zemlja, te da stoga nismo predvidjeni kao potencijalni kandidati.

    Koiko vidim, na ovom seminaru ce se pricati o akciji 1.3 (Youth democracy projects) u kojoj organizacije iz Srbije ne mogu da ucestvuju.

    Stoga, bolje da sklonite ovaj poziv, da ljudi ne bi gubili vreme

    prijavljujuci se.

    Pozdrav

    1. Dear,

      Thank you for your remark.

      Still, Mladiinfo is an international student service portal that publishes information on formal and non-formal educational opportunities for a broader public, not just for Serbia or other Balkan countries, but worldwide.
