 Sustainability of the civil sector depends on successful mobilizationSustainability is not only one of the key words in the group of magically unreachable conditions of 99% of the citizen associations in Republic of Macedonia, but also a need for providing a long-term development of the overall civil sector in RM. Led by those reasons, the Centre for institutional development – CIDe organized the conference “Strategies for sustainability of the NGO sector in Macedonia” within the NGO Fair from 2nd to 5th December 2004 in Skopje. |  |

Zvegor Surva, Black faces, bright hearts
ReportageOn 14 January in Zvegor, everybody had dark, smiling and joyful faces. Dark on your face symbolizes happiness, it chases the evil spirits, it also means health and wealth in the upcoming year. Even the drivers of the big trucks, the tourists with skis on top of their cars and all the others who had to go through Zvegor in order to reach Bulgaria or go back in Macedonia were stopped, their faces were made dark, and they had to pay “tax” to the Zvegor “surovarskars”. Some of the village “beauties” (which were, in fact, men, dresses as women) have even tried to enter the truck cabins and pass the wish for a happy new summer to the truck drivers with a kiss! | |
