Description of the organisation:

The Department of Cultural and Environmental Affairs in Trondheim has the overriding responsibility for cultural and recreational affairs, including the arts, sports, public libraries, activities for young people, measures for immigrants, agriculture and the environment and grants for church activities.The department's director is responsible for planning in these areas, administrates subsidies, grants and benefits, provides guidance and coordinates city-wide cultural initiatives in collaboration with institutions, organizations, and divisions and departments operated by the city.

Experience in previous projects:

The Trondheim local authority is experienced and well qualified in financial and project management for various targetgroups and sectors. Trondheim has adopted a comprehensive policy on youth activities and measures. The focus has been on facilitating youth projects and activities initiated, organised and run by young people themselves, and with a view to this, a variety of projects and recreational and cultural arenas have been established. Trondheim also has broad experience in co-operation with non-governmental youth organisations. The Department of Cultural and Environmental Affairs has developed a programme to train eleven youth workers as “pilots” for new methodology and new tools aimed at getting young people involved. The experiences gained from this provide the foundation for the YO–PRO project.
