creACTive: the world of creative and active young people
creACTive is a youth association from Macedonia for support of creativity and active citizenship of young people. Formed in 2007, creACTive has a main aim to assist the personal development of young people by providing them with a variety of non-formal education activities. creACTive currently has one Youth Centre in Kavadarci and two Youth Clubs – one in Skopje and another one in the village of Drenovo.

‘It was a big experience for me to work in creACTive. During the work I improved my language skills (English, Macedonian), I learnt how to organize events involving many people. Last but not least I learnt about work with young people, how to solve some problems and how to improve the work with them.’ – Adam Gazda from Czech Republic
