Recognize and celebrate the strength and contribution of our young people around the world. “The hopes of the world rest on young people. Peace, economic dynamism, social justice, tolerance — all this and more, today and tomorrow, depends on tapping into the power of youth.” — UN Secretary-General António Guterres “Safe Spaces for Youth” Youth need safe spaces where they can come together, engage in activities related to their diverse needs and interests, participate in decision making processes and freely express themselves. While there are many types of spaces, safe spaces ensure the dignity and safety of youth. Safe spaces such as civic spaces enable youth to engage in governance issues; public spaces afford youth the opportunity to participate in sports and other leisure activities in the community; digital spaces help youth interact virtually across borders with everyone; and well planned physical spaces can help accommodate the needs of diverse youth especially those vulnerable to marginalization or violence. Ensuring that safe spaces are inclusive, youth from diverse backgrounds especially those from outside the local community, need to be assured of respect and self-worth. In humanitarian or conflict prone settings for example, youth may lack the space to fully express themselves without feeling uncomfortable or unwelcome. Similarly, without the existence of safe space, youth from different race/ethnicity, gender, religious affiliation or cultural background may feel intimidated to freely contribute to the community. When youth have safe spaces to engage, they can effectively contribute to development, including peace and social cohesion. “At dawn, when you have trouble getting out of bed, tell yourself: “I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?” So you were born to feel “nice”? Instead of doing things and experiencing them? Don’t you see the plants, the birds, the ants and spiders and bees going about their individual tasks, putting the world in order, as best they can? And you’re not willing to do your job as a human being? Why aren’t you running to do what your nature demands? You don’t love yourself enough. Or you’d love your nature too, and what it demands of you.” – Marcus Aurelius, “Meditations” As a party host, you probably don’t want to think about your potential liquor liability. But it’s something you’ll want to consider as your party planning gets under way this holiday season. That’s because most states hold party hosts who offer excessive alcohol to their guests responsible for those guests’ actions behind the wheel. In those states, anyone injured by a drunk driver has the right to sue the host of the party who served the alcohol. Sometimes, criminal charges may even apply. Recommendations on how to host your holiday party This doesn’t mean you need to call off your party. Instead, keeping a few things in mind may significantly reduce your exposure to social host liquor liability. Limit guests to people you actually know—and seriously consider cutting from your list anyone who habitually overindulges. Encourage your guests to choose a designated driver before they arrive. Serve plenty of nonalcoholic drinks and food to help counter the effects of the alcohol. Have activities like dancing or games going on that don’t involve alcohol. Stop serving alcohol well before the party ends. Offer to call a cab or be the designated driver for anyone who appears intoxicated. To limit your exposure to liquor liability even more, consider: Hosting the event at a restaurant or bar that has a liquor license rather than at your home. Hiring a professional bartender. Pros may be better able to recognize the signs of intoxication—and it’s easier to cut off someone you don’t know. This is especially true if a bartender completed the ServSafe® Alcohol program. As a final precaution, review your homeowners or renters policy. It may offer coverage for damages sought by someone injured by a party guest. For more information on liability insurance, contact an ERIE Agentin your community.

Cilj Međunarodnog dana mladih je privući pozornost na određeni skup kulturnih i pravnih pitanja koja se tiču mlade. Prvi Dan je obilježen 12. kolovoza 2000. godine. “Svijet ulaže nade u mlade. Mir, ekonomska kretanja, socijalna pravda, tolerancija – sve to i više, danas i sutra, ovisi o tome koliko će mladi imati pristupa tim resursima”- izjavio je Glavni tajnik UN-a António Guterres. Trenutno je 1,8 milijardi mladih ljudi u dobi između 10. i 24. godine. Ovo je najveća populacija mladih ikada. No, 1 od 10 djece svijeta živi u mjestima pogođenih sukobima, a 24 milijuna ih je izvan škole. Političke nestabilnosti, izazovi na tržištu rada i ograničeni prostor za političko i građansko sudjelovanje doveli su do povećanja izolacije mladih u društvima. Zato je 12. kolovoza 1999. godine proglašen Međunarodni dan mladih od strane Opće skupštine UN-a i služi kao godišnja proslava uloge mladih žena i muškaraca kao ključnih partnera u promjenama, i prilika za podizanje svijesti o izazovima i problemima s kojima se suočavaju mladi ljudi diljem svijeta. Moto ovogodišnjeg obilježavanja je “Sigurni prostori za mlade” jer mladi trebaju sigurne prostore gdje se mogu povezati, angažirati u aktivnostima vezanim za njihove različite potrebe i interese, sudjelovati u procesima donošenja odluka i slobodno se izraziti. Iako postoje mnoge vrste prostora, ‘sigurni prostori’ osiguravaju dostojanstvo i sigurnost mladih. ‘Sigurni prostori’, kao što su javni prostori, omogućuju mladima uključivanje u pitanja upravljanja; javni prostori omogućuju mladima mogućnost sudjelovanja u športu i drugim aktivnostima u slobodno vrijeme u zajednici; digitalni prostori pomažu mladima da međusobno komuniciraju preko granica; i dobro planirani fizički prostori mogu pomoći da zadovolje potrebe različitih mladih, posebno onih koji su podložni marginalizaciji ili nasilju. Osiguravanjem da su ‘sigurni prostori’ uključivi, mladi različitog podrijetla, posebno oni izvan lokalne zajednice, moraju biti uvjereni u svoje poštovanje i samopoštovanje. Primjerice, u humanitarnim ili konfliktnim okolnostima, mladima možda nedostaje prostora da se u potpunosti izraze bez osjećaja neugode ili nepoželjno. Slično tome, bez postojanja sigurnog prostora, mladi iz različitih rasa / etničke pripadnosti, spola, vjerske pripadnosti ili kulturnog podrijetla, mogu se osjećati zastrašivanima da slobodno doprinesu zajednici. Kada mladi imaju sigurne prostore za angažiranje, oni mogu učinkovito doprinijeti razvoju, uključujući miru i socijalnoj koheziji. Agenda za održivi razvoj”, posebno cilj 11, naglašava potrebu za pružanjem prostora za uključivu i održivu urbanizaciju. I “Nova urbana agenda” (New Urban Agenda, NUA) ponavlja potrebu da javni prostori za mlade omogućuju interakciju s obitelji i imaju konstruktivan međugeneracijski dijalog. Osim toga, “Svjetski program djelovanja za mlade” (World Programme of Action for Youth, WPAY), koji je UN-ov okvir za razvoj mladih, daje prioritet pružanju “aktivnostima u slobodno vrijeme” kao ključne za psihološki, kognitivni i fizički razvoj mladih. Kako sve više i više mladih raste u tehnološki povezanom svijetu, nastoje se dublje uključiti u političke, građanske i društvene stvari, a dostupnost i pristupačnost sigurnih prostora postaje još važnija kako bi to postalo stvarnost. I udruga Pragma kreira ‘siguran prostor’ za mlade pružajuću usluge za mlade u svojim prostorima, kao i drugim (javnim) prostorima s ciljem cjelovitog razvoja mladih, a sve usluge za njih su besplatne zahvaljujući potpori nadležnih ministarstava i Grada Zagreba.
