What is I.R.D.?

Children and youth in Romania have very little contact with both intercultural and non-formal education, since both these fields are underdeveloped in Craiova and the rural area around it, and foreign presence is almost non-existent. This underdevelopment brings also a lack of general interest from these fields, leaving these future adults without contact with 2 major factors present in modern Romania. We also noticed that the the “Scoala altfel” activities lack infusion of new methods, community work and means of realisation.
Several local institutions (public library, museum, center for autistic children, schools and kindergartens) need volunteers to support some of their non-formal activities and cultural events.
We planned to address these needs through attractive activities based on non-formal methods realised with EVS volunteers support.

So the aim of the EVS is developing the 8 key European competences of 4 EVS volunteers, from 4 different countries (Spain, Turkey, Greece and Macedonia), rising their employability chances, through a project promoting intercultural dialogue, non-formal education, social inclusion, participation the labour market, active citizenship, digital literacy and solidarity for the benefit of 2 rural and 2 urban communities.
