The Association of the Friends of Moderate Progress was established as the promoter of self-organised alternative culture in Slovenia. It founded the M&KC Koper Youth and Culture Centre in Koper-Capodistria in 1991, and during the last decade a programme of so-called 'permanent social experiment - an oasis of diverse human relations' - has been devised and developed for the Association by performer and alternative musician Marko Brecelj and cultural activist Arijana Markučič.

The Association fosters creative work and the development of independent critical thinking, and offers room for counter cultures, intermedia expression, educational initiatives, ecology and sport. It is also involved in anti-fascist and anti-clerical activism, and contributes regularly to the non-governement sector's information and discussion forum at Dodogovor.org.

At M&KC Koper DPZN organises and co-ordinates public alternative cultural programmes, including the Koperground Festival. It also collects ansd distributes information on education, employment, leisure activities and culture for the growing youth and adult population, especially focussing on marginal groups of society.
