Being guided by the mission to \u201eBuild characters and help people grow through holistic education and support so they can develop their skills and competences starting from kindergarten to employment\u201d<\/em><\/strong>, Adina Stiftelsen Romania Foundation has been implementing for the last 15 years activities addressed to vulnerable children, youth and families in rural areas of Dolj County.<\/p>\n

Since February 2021, the project \u201eFrom Pupil to Employee: Advocacy and Training for Youth and Women at Risk in the County of Dolj\u201d complements the existing programs implemented by the Adina Stiftelsen Foundation, addressing the problem of inactivity amongst youth at risk and women in rural areas due to lack of facilities and interventions by implementing two new programs V13 and Empo<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The transfer of competence is ensured by the two Norwegian partners: Stiftelsen Kirkens Bymisjon for the adaptation and implementation of the two V13 and Empo concepts, and Adina Stiftelsen Norway through training in advocacy \/ self advocacy techniques, but also support in creating a safe, motivational space to activate vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n

The consultations held with representatives of the target groups helped the Norwegian partners to understand the challenges encountered by the beneficiaries and what are the opportunities to establish a social conscious that can lead to mentality change and increased awareness about the advantages of a responsible and active community.<\/p>\n

All project activities have a strong participatory approach and can be seen as an exercise in community involvement that contributes to the creation of communities where each person is equally important and useful, communities that support the maximization of the potential of his members, understanding that everyone's life and well-being are essential for the wellbeing of the community.<\/p>\n

The beneficiaries of the project feel more confident after participating at the workshops organized within the project and they consider themselves lucky to be able to participate to it. They say they return home more confident and are grateful to the volunteers who share their experience and competences. The workshops addressed various topics: personal development, professional orientation, digital skills development, culinary art, tailoring, knitting \/ crocheting, photography, practical skills, financial education, floral design, etc.<\/p>\n

The success of the project is possible thanks to the total dedication of the hearty volunteers, whether they are members of the targeted communities, members of the Foundation's board, Norwegian partners \u2013 entities or individuals, or former beneficiaries of the Foundation's programs who later became volunteers, because isn\u2019t it? - who knows better than them how important volunteering is \u2013 and to all the people in the communities who joined with enthusiasm and devotion.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>
