Organization for Social Innovation “ARNO“ Асоцијација за развој на нови опции (AРНО)

ARNO is an organization for social innovation, established in 2013 in North Macedonia by people who believe it is possible to build a future where resources are shared, and the world is constantly being improved. A world in which all people act together with one purpose – to create a better future. To achieve this aim, ARNO develops and supports social innovation through the design of new options and diverse social initiatives developed by active citizens. The organization started by creating solutions to large global challenges with small, local activities in several main fields, including the green economy and sustainable development. As a socially innovative organization, ARNO has been able to translate its mission and vision into projects and activities that highlight its commitment, readiness and ability to innovate in order to respond to social issues. The organization believes that civil society activities are a powerful way to create lasting change for communities. Thus, focused work in four programme areas (social innovation, sustainable development, philanthropy and youth) and strategic goals, accompanied by the building of skills, resources and relationships, is the path to building a stronger impact, according to ARNO.
