U okviru lokalne inicijative u Nišavskom Okrugu, GIZ YEP je u saradnji sa Udruženjem Kamenica pokrenulo razvojni projekat baziran na konceptu društveno-odgovorne kooperative sa fokusom na reintegraciju mladih uzrasta od 15 do 35 godina, uključenih u proizvodnju voća i povrća.
Promocija Start-Up-a u Poljoprivredi kao aktivne mere na tržištu rada (ALMM) u okviru YEP projekta uključuje aktivnu kooperaciju između društveno odgovorne kooperative i e. V Help.
Generalni mehanizam kooperacije uključuje sledeće korake:
- YEP projekat podržava društveno-odgovorne kooperative opremom – solarnim sušarama za voće, povrće i bilje;
- Help obezbeđuje tehničku podršku pri uspostavljanju kooperative, podršku tehnološkoj obradi voća, povrća i bilja kao i mentoring;
- Individualne kooperative će integrisati mlade kao članove kooperative i zapošljavati mlade ljude iz NEET kategorije (Not in Education, Employment and Training).
- Oni zajednički razvijaju, testiraju i primenjuju mere.
U okviru kooperative uspostavlja se mini edukaciona-prerađivačka ustanova za sušenje i pakovanje uzgajanih i divljih plodova, kao i lekovitog bilja i začina. Mladi iz ruralnih područja samim tim dobijaju priliku da se teoretski i praktično edukuju, aktivno uključe u proces tehnološkog prerađivanja proizvoda i da dostignu veće prihode.
Poseta je otpočela kratkim predstavljanjem Udruženja Kamenica i konceptom društveno-odgovorne kooperative, nakon čega je usledila prezentacija društveno-odgovorne kooperative za sušenje voća od strane mladih iz NEET kategorije (Not in Education, Empoyment and Training). Diskusija po pitanju trenutnog statusa zapošljivosti mladih je bila održana, a na kraju smo predložili kratnju šetnju kroz naš kamp u svrhu upoznavanja gostiju sa istim.[:EN]On November the 3rd 2016, His Excellence Mr. Axel Dittmann, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mr. Jürgen Schmid, First Secretary (Economic Cooperation Affairs), Mr. Gerhard Sippel, Country Director of Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, Mr. Heinz-Dietrich Harbers, general project manager of YEP and VET projects, Mr. Darko Bulatović, Mayor of Niš, mr.

Within the local initiative in Nis district, GIZ YEP in cooperation with the Association Kamenica, launched a development project based on the concept of socially-responsible cooperative, focusing on re-integration of youth aged 15 to 35, involved in fruit and vegetable production.
The Promotion of Start-Ups in Agriculture as an active labour market measure (ALMM) within the YEP includes active cooperation between socially-responsible cooperative and e. V Help.
The overall cooperation mechanism includes the following steps:
- YEP project supports socially-responsible cooperative with equipment – solar dryer for fruits, vegetables and herbs;
- Help provides technical assistance for establishment of the cooperative, support to technological processing of fruits, vegetable and herbs and mentoring to the cooperative;
- Respective cooperative will integrate youth as members of cooperative and to employ young people from NEET category (Not in Education, Employment and Training).
- They mutually develop, test and implement the measure.
In the cooperative is established a mini educational-processing facility for drying and packaging of grown and forest fruits, same as medicinal herbs and spices. Youth from rural areas are getting the opportunity for theoretical and practical education, to get actively involved in the processes of technological processing of products and to achieve higher income.
The visit started off with a short introduction of NGO Kamenica and the concept of socially-responsible cooperative, followed by the presentation of the socially-responsible cooperative for fruit drying ran by youth from NEET category (Not in Education, Empoyment and Training). Discussion on the current status of youth employment and offered opportunities for youth from NEET category was held, and at the end, we proposed a short walk to introduce the guests to the volunteer camp itself.[:]
