The two organisations agreed to cooperate in several fields, including increasing of young people's awareness for youth policy issues; planning and implementation of joint activities in common causes and initiatives; dissemination of information about joint initiatives and campaigns.
The main aim of the National Youth Forum is to represent the interests of young people in Bulgaria, their needs and to maintain the role of the youth organisations, their development and participation in social and political processes and to be a partner of the institutions and government in the area of Structured dialogue.
Regarding structured dialogue, Law and Internet Foundation is currently implementing the project “Structured Synergies Improve Structured Dialogue”. SSISD is a project which aims to contribute to make young people believe in the importance of their action for building a society based on civic values, facilitating their involvement in the Structured Dialogue process. SSISD is set on a bridging period between the end of the 5th cycle of Structured Dialogue and embracing the full 6th one. The idea of the project is to be a bridge between the results achieved by the 5th Cycle and the priorities set for the upcoming one. SSISD foresees a series of activities strictly related to the actions scheduled by the Steering Committee for the Structured Dialogue and thought to allow reaching of the project objectives. The activities include 4 international meetings and 3 international seminars.
The project is implemented under the framework of the European Commissions’ Programme Erasmus+, within Key Action 3: Support for Policy Reforms. The countries involved are the representatives of the 5th and 6th cycles (Slovakia, Malta, Estonia, Bulgaria, Austria), Italy and Belgium.
