MESSAGE OF THE MANAGEMENT
Two years after the outbreak of the Covid-19
pandemic, the health crisis was overcome glob-
ally, including Macedonia in 2022. However, the
anticipated normalisation and stabilisation of
societal and economic 昀氀ows did not occur. The
energy crisis, in昀氀ation, and the economic crisis
triggered by the war in Ukraine further deterio-
rated the alreadyfragile living standard in Mac-
edonia.
Macedonia’s integration into the European
family and the conditions for starting negotia-
tions set by the "French Proposal" became an
obstacle rather than a point of connection. This
deepened the political crisis in the Assembly of
the Republic of North Macedonia which in July
recommended the adoption of the ‶French Pro-
posal‶, in order to open the country’s European
integrations despite massive public protests.
While explanatory meetings on the screening
process were held in the summer, the opening
and negotiation of chapters remain condition-
al upon changes to the country’s Constitution.
Although in 2022 two working groups began
their operations – one for amendments to the
Law on Associations and Foundations and the
other for reform in state 昀椀nancing of civil or-
ganisations – the yearended without visible re-
sults. There has even been a setback in state
funding due to the non-allocation of 昀椀nancial
resources by the General Secretariat of the
Government. Civil organisations, members of
the Cooperation Council, have been boycotting
the Council’s work since April due to the gov-
ernment’s disregard for their recommendation
on the distribution of budgetary funds for civil
organisations.
Such circumstances point to ongoing politi-
cal, economic, and societal instability and un-
certainty for the civil sector and society. In this
context, MCIC in 2022 implemented 27 projects,
started the Anti-discrimination Prevention and
Promotion Programme (APP), successfully con-
cluded negotiations for the direct continuation
of GRC (2023-2026), received a new grant from
the European Commission to continue the RMA
programme (2023-2026), and is in the 昀椀nal
phase of negotiations to continue Civica Mobil-
itas (2023-2026). Moreover, a positive outcome
is expected from a new anti-corruption pro-
gramme from USAID (2023-2027).
The MCIC budget for 2022 is stable, amounting
to approximately102 million denars. At the be-
ginning of 2022, the Council and the Manage-
ment Board approved the new MCIC Strategy
(2022-2026). With a decision of the Manage-
ment Board, MCIC in June established a new
foundation, the National Foundation for the
Development of Civil Society "Civil Society Re-
source Centre", taking oversome of the respon-
sibilities from the GRC programme.

"This festival celebrates civil society and its contri-
bution to society and citizens," said the Swiss Am-
bassador to the country, Ms. Veronique Ulman, at
the of昀椀cial opening of the Civil Organisations and
Social Enterprises Day held on 24th September2022
in front of the ARM House in Skopje. "A strong, di-
verse, and dynamic civil society is a crucial dimen-
sion for functional democracy," she added.
Mr. David Gurr, the EU Ambassador to the Republic
of North Macedonia, speaking about the importance
of social enterprises, referred to the social economy
in the EU where, according to him, 10% of all busi-
nesses and 13 million people or 6% of the EU pop-
ulation work in social enterprises. "But what's more
important is that they share the ambition of posi-
tively in昀氀uencing society as a whole, putting people
昀椀rst and using pro昀椀t to achieve societal goals," add-
ed Ambassador Gurr.
For Fatmir Bitiqi, the Deputy Prime Minister, the lo-
cation of the Civica Mobilitas Festival next to the
Mother Teresa memorial house is symbolic. "She
didn’t aspire fora Nobel Prize in economics but cared
for the people she found in front of her home. Civil
organizations and social enterprises do the same –
they care for the less fortunate," Bitiqi said, adding,
"people with their ideas are the driving force; with-
out you, nothing, with you, everything!"
The main theme of this year's festival was "Reclaim-
ing Civic Space" and was organised in collaboration
with the Centre for Social Enterprises. Civic activists
cleaned the event area a few days before the fes-
tival, restored benches, and installed rubbish bins.
Thus arranged, the organisers left the space for cit-
izens as a place for discussion, debate, and sharing
experiences and ideas. Civic spaces are the corner-
stones of every open and democratic society. When
this space is open, citizens and civil organizations
can organise, participate, and communicate without
obstacles. This way, they can defend their rights and
in昀氀uence political and societal structures around
them. Therefore, together we appeal for the return
of the civic space to the citizens.
The Civica Mobilitas Festival had its 昀椀fth edition.
More than 110 civil organisations and social enter-
prises from across the country arrived to present
their activities and results to the interested public.

Although the European integration of the Western
Balkans has been ongoing for more than two dec-
ades, corruption still permeates all spheres of soci-
ety – was agreed at the regional forum "Good Gov-
ernance and Anti-Corruption in Southeast Europe
in Times of Geopolitical Uncertainty", organised by
MCIC and SELDI on 26th September 2022 in Bel-
grade, Serbia.
H.E. Emanuele Giaufret, EU Ambassador to Serbia,
emphasised that the 昀椀ght against corruption is a key
issue for citizens, businesses, and the EU. He noted
that the rule of law and the 昀椀ght against corruption
are at the heart of the EU accession process. The US
held a similar pespective and was conveyed by H.E.
Christopher Hill, US Ambassador to Serbia. Accord-
ing to Hill, the best way to protect democracies and
combat corruption is to inform citizens about how to
monitor and report corruption cases.
Ana Veziroglu, Deputy Head of Unit D1 (Policies and
Regional StrategyfortheWestern Balkans) at the Di-
rectorate-General for Neighbourhood and Enlarge-
ment Negotiations (DG NEAR) highlighted the in-
terconnection between the 昀椀ght against corruption
and the 昀椀ght forhuman rights. According to Neman-
ja Todorović Stipilja, Program Director at the Centre
for Contemporary Politics, the high level of corrup-
tion in the region leads to a state capture. Concern-
ing motivational factors, Aleksandar Kržalovski, Di-
rectorof MCIC, said that European integration is one
of the key drivers in the 昀椀ght against corruption in
the region, and the cases of Serbia and Montenegro
have shown that dead end in negotiations reduces
the political will for that 昀椀ght.
Speakers highlighted that corruption does not stop
with EU accession, and there should be a greater fo-
cus on combating state capture and illicit 昀椀nancial
昀氀ows. At the EU level, according to international as-
sessments, it's recommended to measure the real
impact of anti-corruption policies, not just inten-
tions or the number of updated laws. The EU should
stop tolerating corrupt governments, and media
capture can be addressed by building long-term re-
silience to misinformation, continuously debunk-
ing fake news, and increasing trust in public institu-
tions. The effectiveness of the judiciary also needs
to be enhanced by increasing the capacity of people
with integrity, like judges and prosecutors, and cre-
ating an environment free from political pressure.

"The role of the media in the prevention of violent
extremism and the promotion of reintegration and
rehabilitation of returnees from foreign battle昀椀elds
and their families" was the theme of the training or-
ganised by MCIC for journalists and media collabo-
rators in March 2022.
Participants had the opportunity to learn more
about what constitutes violent extremism and rad-
icalism, to understand the reintegration and reso-
cialisation process, and how collaboration between
institutions, information exchange, and trust-build-
ing takes place.
In addition, they discussed the principles of report-
ing on extremism and radicalism and some practical
examples, especially on how to avoid pitfalls with
trainers Ph. D. Nikola Dujovski and Ph. D. Marina Tu-
neva.
One of the discussion topics was also the impact of
narratives in reporting on violent extremism and
radicalism and how to create those that will con-
tribute to the prevention of violent extremism and
radicalism, in favour of reintegration and resociali-
sation.
In the practical part, they analysed media reporting
on cases: "Wild Settlement", "Monster", "Cell", and
one European case. Aditionally, in a role-play, they
conducted an interviewwith a returnee from foreign
battle昀椀elds and with their relatives.
"We've done good work and such meetings should
be repeated, especially foryoungercolleagues," said
Filjana Koka from Macedonian National Television.
According to her, openness is half the success in
overcoming the issue.
Jovan Peševski and Tanja Lazarevska Petrovska,
representatives of the public relations services of
the Ministry of Interior and the Army General Staff,
found the training useful. "Some of my perceptions
about the returnees deepened. I'm glad the training
was very proactive and we discussed how essential
it is for the information to be accurate and to avoid
sensationalism," said Peševski.
For Lazarevska, it's important for people from insti-
tutions to get acquainted with journalists so they
would knowwhere to direct the questions that come
to them.

Human rights, non-discrimination, equality, and
tolerance were the main topics at the two summer
schools for youth organised by MCIC in June and
September 2022 in Struga.
A total of 44 young people from all over the coun-
try learned and discussed the phenomena and ef-
fects of discrimination, as well as the bene昀椀ts of
developing a multicultural society. "With this sum-
mer school, we are in昀氀uencing the creation of a crit-
ical mass of future young activists and practitioners
who can effectively recognise the key challenges in
the 昀椀eld of human rights protection and the 昀椀ght
against discrimination," says Alexandra Savevska
from MCIC.
Participants debated the relations between differ-
ent groups of citizens in Macedonia and the need
to develop civic activism to cope with the signi昀椀-
cant intolerance and discrimination against vulner-
able groups. Activism should stem from the citizens
themselves, and the youth are the starting point in
creating greater societal awareness about open-
ing and addressing issues of gender equality, social
equality, respecting differences, etc.
"As people, we need to know what rights we have
and if we are in some way discriminated against, or
be alert and smart in such cases," says Sabrije Te昀椀-
ki. The experience from the summerschool provided
him with greaterawareness of universal rights, ena-
bling him to help others and be a more citizen. Edis
Qesasi believes that the lecturers had an excellent
approach, allowing better interaction and substan-
tial debates between participants and certainly in-
creased knowledge on the topic. "What is important
is that the real problems in our multicultural society
and overcoming them were openly discussed," said
Qesasi. Milica Stojković believes the school allowed
her to become more self-aware and better under-
stand other individuals. "By participating, I gained
experience on how to prevent and combat discrimi-
nation, which will bene昀椀t my future personal devel-
opment," she said.
The activities from the programme will strength-
en institutions that need to increase citizens' trust.
This, in turn, will encourage citizens to raise their
voice against injustices and exert more pressure
which will impact the continuous improvement of
the institutions.

Twelve young students from the diaspora success-
fully completed their three-week stay in the coun-
try as part of the "Born in Macedonia" project, which
took place in July 2022 in Skopje and for the 昀椀rst
time in Bitola.
"My favourite part of the programme was my intern-
ship. I learned many things related to the 昀椀eld of my
academic studies. This is my 昀椀rst visit to Macedo-
nia, and I experienced what my grandparents had al-
ways told me about. I'm very grateful for the people
I met and the places I had the opportunity to visit,"
said James Trentos from the USA. He was an intern
at the Ecosvest association in Skopje, where he ana-
lysed the forestry sector in Macedonia and reviewed
best practices and experiences from forest manage-
ment in Canada, where he studies.
For Naum Hoffman from the USA, this was not his
昀椀rst visit to Macedonia. "It was interesting to vis-
it Ohrid and Galichnik. My family is from the east-
ern part of Macedonia, but now I had the chance to
see the beauty of other places in the country. What
mattered most to me were the new acquaintances I
made because where I come from, I don't have much
contact with Macedonians," he said.
"I am thrilled to have made so many friends during
this programme. I have many photos and memories
from the time spent here. I also enjoyed my intern-
ship and had the opportunity to compare the work
here and in the USA," Matthew Kostov from the USA
told us. He stayed in Bitola and was an intern at the
Bitola Laboratory.
For the other participants, the internship was de-
signed to align with their academic goals, their ca-
reers, or general interests.
During the weekends, the participants explored
Skopje, Ohrid, and Bitola and attended the tradi-
tional Galichnik wedding.
MCIC and the United Macedonian Diaspora (UMD)
as project implementers, togetherwith new partner
Alliance Bitola who joined this year, have so far ena-
bled a total of 45 young people from the USA, Cana-
da, Australia, the UK, and Switzerland to go through
this informal yet intensive return to their roots and
connection to their ancestors' homeland.

ANNUAL REPORT 2022
[ 15 ]
The project team, consisting of representatives from
MCIC and the First Children's Embassy in the World
"Megjashi", guided the municipalities and theirpart-
ner organisations through the application process
for establishing social services, resulting in 33 ap-
plications submitted to the Ministry of Labour and
Social Policy (MLSP) by 25 August 2022.
Of these, 11 were approved, supporting 17 munic-
ipalities, namely: Ohrid, Prilep, Gevgelija, Strumi-
ca, Gostivar, Probishtip, Kratovo, Krushevo, Kriva
Palanka, Dolneni, Krivogashtani, Bogdanci, Bosilo-
vo, Vrapchishte, Plasnica, Centar Zhupa, and Arachi-
novo.
The social services that will be provided to residents
of these municipalities include: home care and as-
sistance, provision of personal assistance and or-
ganisation of day centres for stay. About 530 ben-
e昀椀ciaries, requiring assistance and support, such as
individuals over 65, children and adults with phys-
ical or intellectual disabilities, and those with re-
duced functional capacity, are expected to be cov-
ered.
The establishment of social services in these mu-
nicipalities creates employment opportunities for
around 150 individuals, primarily caregivers and
other professionals, who will undergo appropriate
training and receive licenses before starting their
job.
Between 28 July and 19 August 2022, the staff held
a total of 46 meetings with representatives from
the municipalities and their partners. These meet-
ings were used to provide instructions for complet-
ing the forms for the narrative and 昀椀nancial sec-
tions of the application. Additionally, discussions
revolved around ideas or potential social services,
dilemmas related to them, and technical aspects
such as certifying organisations and licensing ser-
vice providers. Later, when reviewing and improving
the applications, the project team provided tailored
training sessions and mentored the municipalities
and their partner organisations. Due to the unique-
ness of each municipality, the approach was individ-
ualised, meaning, it was customised for each munic-
ipality separately.

e-bulletin were released. The Annual Work Report for 2021 was also prepared and published, and the MCIC
website is fully functional and constantly updated. Part of the contents is also published on other social media
platforms, enhancing the MCIC's visibility. In 2022, the web page had 28,501 visits where the visitors saw 57,768
articles. MCIC regularly communicated with the media via press releases, direct contacts at presentations and
promotions. These contacts resulted in 192 news items.

  • 3. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 3 ] MESSAGE OF THE MANAGEMENT Two years after the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, the health crisis was overcome glob- ally, including Macedonia in 2022. However, the anticipated normalisation and stabilisation of societal and economic 昀氀ows did not occur. The energy crisis, in昀氀ation, and the economic crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine further deterio- rated the alreadyfragile living standard in Mac- edonia. Macedonia’s integration into the European family and the conditions for starting negotia- tions set by the "French Proposal" became an obstacle rather than a point of connection. This deepened the political crisis in the Assembly of the Republic of North Macedonia which in July recommended the adoption of the ‶French Pro- posal‶, in order to open the country’s European integrations despite massive public protests. While explanatory meetings on the screening process were held in the summer, the opening and negotiation of chapters remain condition- al upon changes to the country’s Constitution. Although in 2022 two working groups began their operations – one for amendments to the Law on Associations and Foundations and the other for reform in state 昀椀nancing of civil or- ganisations – the yearended without visible re- sults. There has even been a setback in state funding due to the non-allocation of 昀椀nancial resources by the General Secretariat of the Government. Civil organisations, members of the Cooperation Council, have been boycotting the Council’s work since April due to the gov- ernment’s disregard for their recommendation on the distribution of budgetary funds for civil organisations. Such circumstances point to ongoing politi- cal, economic, and societal instability and un- certainty for the civil sector and society. In this context, MCIC in 2022 implemented 27 projects, started the Anti-discrimination Prevention and Promotion Programme (APP), successfully con- cluded negotiations for the direct continuation of GRC (2023-2026), received a new grant from the European Commission to continue the RMA programme (2023-2026), and is in the 昀椀nal phase of negotiations to continue Civica Mobil- itas (2023-2026). Moreover, a positive outcome is expected from a new anti-corruption pro- gramme from USAID (2023-2027). The MCIC budget for 2022 is stable, amounting to approximately102 million denars. At the be- ginning of 2022, the Council and the Manage- ment Board approved the new MCIC Strategy (2022-2026). With a decision of the Manage- ment Board, MCIC in June established a new foundation, the National Foundation for the Development of Civil Society "Civil Society Re- source Centre", taking oversome of the respon- sibilities from the GRC programme.

  • 5. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 5 ] "This festival celebrates civil society and its contri- bution to society and citizens," said the Swiss Am- bassador to the country, Ms. Veronique Ulman, at the of昀椀cial opening of the Civil Organisations and Social Enterprises Day held on 24th September2022 in front of the ARM House in Skopje. "A strong, di- verse, and dynamic civil society is a crucial dimen- sion for functional democracy," she added. Mr. David Gurr, the EU Ambassador to the Republic of North Macedonia, speaking about the importance of social enterprises, referred to the social economy in the EU where, according to him, 10% of all busi- nesses and 13 million people or 6% of the EU pop- ulation work in social enterprises. "But what's more important is that they share the ambition of posi- tively in昀氀uencing society as a whole, putting people 昀椀rst and using pro昀椀t to achieve societal goals," add- ed Ambassador Gurr. For Fatmir Bitiqi, the Deputy Prime Minister, the lo- cation of the Civica Mobilitas Festival next to the Mother Teresa memorial house is symbolic. "She didn’t aspire fora Nobel Prize in economics but cared for the people she found in front of her home. Civil organizations and social enterprises do the same – they care for the less fortunate," Bitiqi said, adding, "people with their ideas are the driving force; with- out you, nothing, with you, everything!" The main theme of this year's festival was "Reclaim- ing Civic Space" and was organised in collaboration with the Centre for Social Enterprises. Civic activists cleaned the event area a few days before the fes- tival, restored benches, and installed rubbish bins. Thus arranged, the organisers left the space for cit- izens as a place for discussion, debate, and sharing experiences and ideas. Civic spaces are the corner- stones of every open and democratic society. When this space is open, citizens and civil organizations can organise, participate, and communicate without obstacles. This way, they can defend their rights and in昀氀uence political and societal structures around them. Therefore, together we appeal for the return of the civic space to the citizens. The Civica Mobilitas Festival had its 昀椀fth edition. More than 110 civil organisations and social enter- prises from across the country arrived to present their activities and results to the interested public.

  • 7. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 7 ] Although the European integration of the Western Balkans has been ongoing for more than two dec- ades, corruption still permeates all spheres of soci- ety – was agreed at the regional forum "Good Gov- ernance and Anti-Corruption in Southeast Europe in Times of Geopolitical Uncertainty", organised by MCIC and SELDI on 26th September 2022 in Bel- grade, Serbia. H.E. Emanuele Giaufret, EU Ambassador to Serbia, emphasised that the 昀椀ght against corruption is a key issue for citizens, businesses, and the EU. He noted that the rule of law and the 昀椀ght against corruption are at the heart of the EU accession process. The US held a similar pespective and was conveyed by H.E. Christopher Hill, US Ambassador to Serbia. Accord- ing to Hill, the best way to protect democracies and combat corruption is to inform citizens about how to monitor and report corruption cases. Ana Veziroglu, Deputy Head of Unit D1 (Policies and Regional StrategyfortheWestern Balkans) at the Di- rectorate-General for Neighbourhood and Enlarge- ment Negotiations (DG NEAR) highlighted the in- terconnection between the 昀椀ght against corruption and the 昀椀ght forhuman rights. According to Neman- ja Todorović Stipilja, Program Director at the Centre for Contemporary Politics, the high level of corrup- tion in the region leads to a state capture. Concern- ing motivational factors, Aleksandar Kržalovski, Di- rectorof MCIC, said that European integration is one of the key drivers in the 昀椀ght against corruption in the region, and the cases of Serbia and Montenegro have shown that dead end in negotiations reduces the political will for that 昀椀ght. Speakers highlighted that corruption does not stop with EU accession, and there should be a greater fo- cus on combating state capture and illicit 昀椀nancial 昀氀ows. At the EU level, according to international as- sessments, it's recommended to measure the real impact of anti-corruption policies, not just inten- tions or the number of updated laws. The EU should stop tolerating corrupt governments, and media capture can be addressed by building long-term re- silience to misinformation, continuously debunk- ing fake news, and increasing trust in public institu- tions. The effectiveness of the judiciary also needs to be enhanced by increasing the capacity of people with integrity, like judges and prosecutors, and cre- ating an environment free from political pressure.

  • 9. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 9 ] "The role of the media in the prevention of violent extremism and the promotion of reintegration and rehabilitation of returnees from foreign battle昀椀elds and their families" was the theme of the training or- ganised by MCIC for journalists and media collabo- rators in March 2022. Participants had the opportunity to learn more about what constitutes violent extremism and rad- icalism, to understand the reintegration and reso- cialisation process, and how collaboration between institutions, information exchange, and trust-build- ing takes place. In addition, they discussed the principles of report- ing on extremism and radicalism and some practical examples, especially on how to avoid pitfalls with trainers Ph. D. Nikola Dujovski and Ph. D. Marina Tu- neva. One of the discussion topics was also the impact of narratives in reporting on violent extremism and radicalism and how to create those that will con- tribute to the prevention of violent extremism and radicalism, in favour of reintegration and resociali- sation. In the practical part, they analysed media reporting on cases: "Wild Settlement", "Monster", "Cell", and one European case. Aditionally, in a role-play, they conducted an interviewwith a returnee from foreign battle昀椀elds and with their relatives. "We've done good work and such meetings should be repeated, especially foryoungercolleagues," said Filjana Koka from Macedonian National Television. According to her, openness is half the success in overcoming the issue. Jovan Peševski and Tanja Lazarevska Petrovska, representatives of the public relations services of the Ministry of Interior and the Army General Staff, found the training useful. "Some of my perceptions about the returnees deepened. I'm glad the training was very proactive and we discussed how essential it is for the information to be accurate and to avoid sensationalism," said Peševski. For Lazarevska, it's important for people from insti- tutions to get acquainted with journalists so they would knowwhere to direct the questions that come to them.

  • 11. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 11 ] Human rights, non-discrimination, equality, and tolerance were the main topics at the two summer schools for youth organised by MCIC in June and September 2022 in Struga. A total of 44 young people from all over the coun- try learned and discussed the phenomena and ef- fects of discrimination, as well as the bene昀椀ts of developing a multicultural society. "With this sum- mer school, we are in昀氀uencing the creation of a crit- ical mass of future young activists and practitioners who can effectively recognise the key challenges in the 昀椀eld of human rights protection and the 昀椀ght against discrimination," says Alexandra Savevska from MCIC. Participants debated the relations between differ- ent groups of citizens in Macedonia and the need to develop civic activism to cope with the signi昀椀- cant intolerance and discrimination against vulner- able groups. Activism should stem from the citizens themselves, and the youth are the starting point in creating greater societal awareness about open- ing and addressing issues of gender equality, social equality, respecting differences, etc. "As people, we need to know what rights we have and if we are in some way discriminated against, or be alert and smart in such cases," says Sabrije Te昀椀- ki. The experience from the summerschool provided him with greaterawareness of universal rights, ena- bling him to help others and be a more citizen. Edis Qesasi believes that the lecturers had an excellent approach, allowing better interaction and substan- tial debates between participants and certainly in- creased knowledge on the topic. "What is important is that the real problems in our multicultural society and overcoming them were openly discussed," said Qesasi. Milica Stojković believes the school allowed her to become more self-aware and better under- stand other individuals. "By participating, I gained experience on how to prevent and combat discrimi- nation, which will bene昀椀t my future personal devel- opment," she said. The activities from the programme will strength- en institutions that need to increase citizens' trust. This, in turn, will encourage citizens to raise their voice against injustices and exert more pressure which will impact the continuous improvement of the institutions.

  • 13. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 13 ] Twelve young students from the diaspora success- fully completed their three-week stay in the coun- try as part of the "Born in Macedonia" project, which took place in July 2022 in Skopje and for the 昀椀rst time in Bitola. "My favourite part of the programme was my intern- ship. I learned many things related to the 昀椀eld of my academic studies. This is my 昀椀rst visit to Macedo- nia, and I experienced what my grandparents had al- ways told me about. I'm very grateful for the people I met and the places I had the opportunity to visit," said James Trentos from the USA. He was an intern at the Ecosvest association in Skopje, where he ana- lysed the forestry sector in Macedonia and reviewed best practices and experiences from forest manage- ment in Canada, where he studies. For Naum Hoffman from the USA, this was not his 昀椀rst visit to Macedonia. "It was interesting to vis- it Ohrid and Galichnik. My family is from the east- ern part of Macedonia, but now I had the chance to see the beauty of other places in the country. What mattered most to me were the new acquaintances I made because where I come from, I don't have much contact with Macedonians," he said. "I am thrilled to have made so many friends during this programme. I have many photos and memories from the time spent here. I also enjoyed my intern- ship and had the opportunity to compare the work here and in the USA," Matthew Kostov from the USA told us. He stayed in Bitola and was an intern at the Bitola Laboratory. For the other participants, the internship was de- signed to align with their academic goals, their ca- reers, or general interests. During the weekends, the participants explored Skopje, Ohrid, and Bitola and attended the tradi- tional Galichnik wedding. MCIC and the United Macedonian Diaspora (UMD) as project implementers, togetherwith new partner Alliance Bitola who joined this year, have so far ena- bled a total of 45 young people from the USA, Cana- da, Australia, the UK, and Switzerland to go through this informal yet intensive return to their roots and connection to their ancestors' homeland.

  • 14. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 14 ] PROJECTS FOR SOCIAL INCLUSION SUPPORT TO MUNICIPALITIES FOR ESTABLISHING SOCIAL SERVICES Strengthening the system of providing public services in the 昀椀eld of social protection. GOAL 33 applications to MLSP 11 approved – supporting17 municipalities 150 individuals may gain employment 530 bene昀椀ciaries to be covered
  • 15. ANNUAL REPORT 2022 [ 15 ] The project team, consisting of representatives from MCIC and the First Children's Embassy in the World "Megjashi", guided the municipalities and theirpart- ner organisations through the application process for establishing social services, resulting in 33 ap- plications submitted to the Ministry of Labour and Social Policy (MLSP) by 25 August 2022. Of these, 11 were approved, supporting 17 munic- ipalities, namely: Ohrid, Prilep, Gevgelija, Strumi- ca, Gostivar, Probishtip, Kratovo, Krushevo, Kriva Palanka, Dolneni, Krivogashtani, Bogdanci, Bosilo- vo, Vrapchishte, Plasnica, Centar Zhupa, and Arachi- novo. The social services that will be provided to residents of these municipalities include: home care and as- sistance, provision of personal assistance and or- ganisation of day centres for stay. About 530 ben- e昀椀ciaries, requiring assistance and support, such as individuals over 65, children and adults with phys- ical or intellectual disabilities, and those with re- duced functional capacity, are expected to be cov- ered. The establishment of social services in these mu- nicipalities creates employment opportunities for around 150 individuals, primarily caregivers and other professionals, who will undergo appropriate training and receive licenses before starting their job. Between 28 July and 19 August 2022, the staff held a total of 46 meetings with representatives from the municipalities and their partners. These meet- ings were used to provide instructions for complet- ing the forms for the narrative and 昀椀nancial sec- tions of the application. Additionally, discussions revolved around ideas or potential social services, dilemmas related to them, and technical aspects such as certifying organisations and licensing ser- vice providers. Later, when reviewing and improving the applications, the project team provided tailored training sessions and mentored the municipalities and their partner organisations. Due to the unique- ness of each municipality, the approach was individ- ualised, meaning, it was customised for each munic- ipality separately. RESIDENTS OF 17 MUNICIPALITIES WILL HAVE BETTER ACCESS TO SOCIAL SERVICES
