Žene – stubovi svakog društva, ojačajmo ih!Women are the pillars of every society – let’s empower them!

Nedavno je počela realizacija projekta „Žene kao nosioci društvenih promjena u Crnoj Gori“, koji će trajati naredne tri godine. Projekat većim dijelom finansira Ministarstvo vanjskih poslova Republike Slovenije posredstvom vodećeg partnera ADRA Slovenije, a u cjelosti se sprovodi u Crnoj Gori kroz partnerstvo sa ADRA Crne Gore, institucionalnim partnerima i lokalnim organizacijama civilnog društva.The project “Women as Agents of Social Change in Montenegro” has recently started and will run for the next three years. It is funded mainly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia through the lead partner ADRA Slovenia, and is implemented entirely in Montenegro in partnership with ADRA Montenegro, institutional partners and local civil society organizations.

Cilj projekta je da doprinese osnaživanju žena u Crnoj Gori: boljem poznavanju njihovih prava, socijalnoj inkluziji, prilikama za zapošljavanje i samozapošljavanje kroz preduzetničke inicijative, podizanju svijesti ranjivih kategorija o ljudskim pravima i očuvanju zdravlja kao preduslovu zdravog društva, kao i podizanju svijesti cijele zajednice o pravima žena i njihovom aktivnom uključivanju u kreiranje socijalnih politika. Posebna pažnja posvećena je mladim ženama, dugoročno nezaposlenima, ženama starijim od 40 godina, Romkinjama, samohranim majkama i drugim ranjivim kategorijama.The project aims to help empower women in Montenegro: a better understanding of their rights, social inclusion, opportunities for employment and self-employment through entrepreneurial initiatives, raising awareness among vulnerable groups of their human rights and of health as the basis of a healthy society, and raising awareness in the whole community of women’s rights and their active involvement in shaping social policy. Special attention is given to young women, the long-term unemployed, women over 40, Roma women, single mothers and other vulnerable groups.

U okviru projekta otvoren je Centar za osnaživanje ženskih prava i preduzetničkih inicijativa.As part of the project, the Centre for Empowering Women’s Rights and Entrepreneurial Initiatives has been opened.

U toku su besplatni kursevi informatičkog opismenjavanja i kursevi krojenja i šivenja. Poseban akcenat stavljamo na socijalno savjetovanje, koje počinje 25. septembra, kroz tematske sesije jednom sedmično. Savjetovanje je namijenjeno ženama, posebno nezaposlenim i zaposlenim ženama, samohranim majkama, studentkinjama, trudnicama i porodiljama, ženama žrtvama nasilja i penzionerkama. Svake sedmice obrađuje se po jedna tema vezana za probleme sa kojima se ove žene susreću.Free computer literacy courses and tailoring and sewing courses are under way. We place special emphasis on social counselling, which starts on 25 September with weekly thematic sessions. The counselling is intended for women, especially unemployed and employed women, single mothers, students, pregnant women and new mothers, women survivors of violence and retired women. Each week covers one topic related to the challenges these women face.
