As part of the project “Child Protection” and in cooperation with UNICEF Innovations Lab, youth from the municipality of Gjakova have undertaken two initiatives aimed at promoting cycling and lobbying to have more sports facilities for young people.
To advocate for sports facilities, the SPORTIZO initiative organized a march and then continued with a three-day football tournament, which brought together 22 teams from the secondary schools of the municipality of Gjakova.
The “2B” initiative (to bike, to be) in cooperation with Cycling Club “Gjakova 137” organized a bicycle parade in the city of Gjakova in order to promote cycling and at the same time advocate for institutions to create more trails/spaces for exercising this sport. After the parade, five bicycle parking places were created at several key points in the city.
