Monitoring evolution of political parties in the Republic of Moldova
Leadership Training for Young Activists of Political Parties
As of June 1, 2002 ADEPT commenced the implementation of a project aimed to enhance the knowledge and understanding by Republic of Moldova's young party leaders of electoral and political processes, as a necessary pre-requisite for their engagement in the overall electoral process. With the support of the Royal Netherlands Embassy, ADEPT will produce "Mandate for Leadership" guide for beginning politicians, will monitor on its website the latest political and legislative developments and organize debates with the participation of young party activists.
In 2002 Civic Voice newsletter has become the newsletter of the Moldovan NGO community. The newsletter aims to improve the image of the non-governmental organizations of the Republic of Moldova by informing the other two sectors about its role and activities. Also, Civic Voice strives to increase NGOs' access to information about successful projects implemented by domestic and foreign NGOs, events organized for and by NGOs, legal provisions, funding sources, etc. The publication of the Civic Voice was made possible with the support of Soros-Moldova Foundation and US Embassy to Moldova. It is published bimonthly with a 3,000 copies turnout. Civic Voice is produced jointly by ADEPT and Contact NGO Resource Center.
In January 2002 ADEPT commenced collecting and systematizing materials available on political parties in order to provide an unbiased information on the evolution of political parties in the Republic of Moldova. You could access the data on www.parties.e-democracy.md. ADEPT uses a variety of sources such as political parties, Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Moldova, Central Electoral Commission, etc. The project was made possible with the support of Soros-Moldova Foundation.
In January 2002, ADEPT started implementing the project Leadership Training for Young Activists of Political Parties, funded by Westminster Foundation for Democracy, UK. This project represents a new dimension of the Electoral School, a training program for the youth branches of the political parties of the Republic of Moldova, conducted by IFES/ADEPT in 1999-2001.
The goal of the Leadership Training for Young Activists of Political Parties project is to contribute to the strengthening of political parties through empowering young party leaders and promoting a value based alternative to the current party system.
Thirty representatives of the political parties' youth branches will be trained during 27 sessions. ADEPTS will provide young party leaders with the knowledge and tools necessary to promote themselves within parties. As a result of this project, we hope to build trust among young party leaders by providing a framework for discussions, exchange of ideas and debates.
The project will include the following activities: designing the course curriculum entitled Leadership Handbook, 27 sessions of the Leadership School. The training activities shall end with a one-week Summer Leadership School to be organised outside Chisinau. During the summer school participants will develop various useful documents for the party building, such as code of conduct of political parties. All those documents, together with the essays written by the young politicians will be published in a brochure entitled Strategy of Compromise.
