The Gostivar Youth and Community Center (GYCC) serves a safe and open space for all Gostivar residents. We provide community programming to Gostivar’s youth, and our rent-free community room is available to any community member wishing to bring positive change to Gostivar. We aim to bring the community members together, celebrate our rich cultures, and build a more resilient community.

The GYCC Center is operated by Democracy Lab, an organization committed to forming networks and partnerships focused on building, developing, and sustaining a functional democratic system in Macedonia and the Western Balkan State. In our efforts, we are supported by the Municipality of Gostivar and the United States Embassy of Macedonia.

Our community room is available for all Gostivar community members who wish to hold a community event, such as a workshop or club, but lack the space needed. We offer this service free of charge. If you are interested in using the community room, please visit our “reservation form” tab to find available dates and times.
