Description
Banovanija 2024 - Summer children games this year will have its 4th season. Children in rural areas of Glina town during school summer break have no social programs to engage in. This area is one of the poorest in the country, and its citizens have recently endured the hard struggle, which was devastating earthquake in 2020 that devasted their homes and livelihood. Because children in the rural area of Glina have few opportunites to spend time with their peers during the school summer break, Banovanija 2024 Summer children games were created to provide children opportunity to develop social skills, create friendships, receive mentorship and enjoy their youth despite the struggles of general poverty and consequences of the earthquake.
