Project “I, an Oltenia-Based Peasant, need an education!”

Project funded by SEE 2009-2014 grants, within Romania NGO Fund www.eeagrants.org; www.fondong.fdsc.ro

What are we going to do!
We will contribute to the national target of reducing early school drop-out below 11.3% by 2020, through the proposed objective of keeping at least 220 children in the educational system, until the end of the 2016 school year, at the level of Fărcaș and Goiești communities in Dolj County.

When? – May 1st, 2014- April 30th, 2016

In response to the increased risk of school dropout at national level and in the context of the European Union’s priority to reduce school dropout to the level of 10% by 2020, the Adina Stiftelsen Foundation from Romania, accredited as a provider of social services and active in providing educational services for the prevention of school dropout in rural areas of Dolj county, according to the statute, considered it necessary to initiate a project that would continue to support the maintenance of a double number of children in school compared to the numbers supported until now, in conjunction with the increase in the quality of the educational act and sensitizing parents to the need for a solid education, so that as many of the multiple causes at the origin of the school dropout phenomenon can be solved.

How?
By providing educational services – carrying out after-school activities, such as: homework support; English course – beginners, creative activities, sports activities, traditional or “society” dances, etc. by providing educational materials and other minimum conditions necessary for the quality of the educational act (consumable materials, didactic-educational materials and equipment); through teacher training services (training sessions, work visits to Romania and Norway); through counseling services offered to parents and volunteers, including joint teacher-parent-child activities.
