How do you manage youth social
life in a proactive, positive way;
how do you organize children’s free time;
how do you enrich the cultural offer and educate kids from poor families; how do you
help them overcome health issues; how do
you teach them to be responsible citizens;
how do you disguise social differences and
is such a comprehensive project economically viable? An answer to these questions was
given through an example of similar practice in former Yugoslavia, through a specific
and complex project named Pioneer City in
Belgrade, built in the last century. Yet, a response to the query why it was essential to
have such a project is even more complicated and really hard to explain to the present generations of youngsters.
Pioneer City used to be Belgrade’s independent educational institution where
primary school children from the city and other parts of the country would spend
their free time. An active vacation in Pioneer City aimed at filling pioneers’ free time
...with educational, cultural and entertaining contents so that children would not stray
from the right way but rather choose the path of developing (communist) consciousness. The goal, as in every organization in charge of upbringing, was directed towards successful development/cultivation and life in accordance with social norms
(Duda 2015:12-22).
