It proposes health and non-formal education interventions designed for disadvantaged children and parents at risk of social exclusion.<\/p>\n<p>The project partners aim to achieve four main objectives within the local community:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #036951;\"><strong>Increase access to quality health services:<\/strong><\/span> By the end of the project, ensure that at least 400 schoolchildren in H\u00e2r\u0219ova, with a minimum of 75% of Roma ethnicity, have access to quality health services.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #036951;\"><strong>Develop life skills:<\/strong><\/span> Provide non-formal educational activities to develop life skills for at least 500 vulnerable children and youth in H\u00e2r\u0219ova (including 400 Roma).<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #036951;\"><strong>Parental education program: <\/strong><\/span>By the end of the project, awareness of legal rights and parenting skills for 80 vulnerable parents (including at least 30 Roma women) will be increased through a parental education program that includes awareness and empowerment components.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #036951;\"><strong>Promote social inclusion and combat discrimination:<\/strong><\/span> Train 10 socio-educational animators, 60 professionals from local public administration, and 25 community leaders, and involve 10 Roma youth in a study visit to promote social inclusion and combat any form of discrimination against Roma.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Through these activities, the H\u00e2r\u0219ova Town Hall and the Romanian Angel Appeal Foundation aim to implement sustainable interventions for vulnerable communities in H\u00e2r\u0219ova, promoting an intercultural approach.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f69e0a;\"><strong>Educational and awareness activities<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The non-formal educational activities and the information campaign aim to enhance intercultural competencies and awareness of cultural differences within the community. These will be directly utilized throughout the project&#8217;s implementation in all organized activities.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the proposed activities aim to increase tolerance and acceptance of the Roma community by the general population. By involving Roma community representatives in training activities, the project promotes messages of social responsibility, respect for rights, and civic duties. This integrative approach will also be highlighted through the materials produced within the project.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f69e0a;\"><strong>Target group<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The project targets Roma individuals and families but does not exclude those from the majority population living under similar socio-economic conditions in H\u00e2r\u0219ova. Most activities will address the community as a whole, emphasizing that the issues faced by Roma families are also challenges for other vulnerable groups. The project seeks viable solutions to increase the active participation of young people, including Roma youth, in community life. Thus, young people will be trained and able to practice methods and techniques of active participation throughout the project.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #f69e0a;\"><strong>You can find the press release on our Romanian page <a href=\"https:\/\/raa.ro\/comunicat-de-presa-lansare-proiect-educational\/\">HERE<\/a>.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f69e0a;\"><strong>Project funding<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>The project is funded by a grant of \u20ac582,361 provided by Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway through the EEA Grants under the Local Development Program.
