Change the rules of the game

IOGT-NTO Movement, in collaboration with Forum MNE, is launching a transformative five-year initiative titled ”Change the Rules of the Game.” This ambitious project aims to empower and enhance the capacities of various stakeholders—civil society organizations (CSOs), youth, and authorities—to actively participate in decision-making processes and foster an environment where young people are resilient to alcohol-related harm and equipped with health literacy.

Central to this endeavor are comprehensive capacity-building programs tailored for youth, aimed at equipping them with essential skills and knowledge. Additionally, the project focuses on advancing health education curricula and promoting youth-led initiatives that address alcohol-related issues.

Policy advocacy plays a crucial role, as the project seeks to influence and improve policies related to alcohol harm reduction through strategic engagement with decision-makers. By fostering networks and alliances among local and regional actors, the initiative aims to strengthen partnerships and enhance coordination efforts.

Ultimately, ”Change the Rules of the Game” aspires to mobilize increased resources dedicated to reducing alcohol-related harm in Montenegro. It envisions a future where collaborative efforts yield tangible improvements in public health outcomes and a supportive environment for the well-being of young people.
