Summary of project results
The project started from the premise that the Romanian society members do not fully exercise their rights, as EU citizens. Although they have begun to react to political inputs, their involvement in the communities in which they live day by day is still very low. The project aimed to draw a warning and show members of communities models of intervention, in order to improve the quality of life at community level. Some tools were created and piloted. This led to the achievement of the indicators proposed: an online community that will later generate civic actions was created, and the initiation of two partnerships with representatives of the Police and School, which are two vital institutions in the process of exercising civil rights, was concluded; four seminars with 40 representatives of the Police and School were organized. An open lesson on participatory active citizenship was generated and presented to secondary school students. 33 people joined the project team, in order to continue the efforts in promoting active citizenship (16 new members, 17 volunteers). Thus, the number of members of the association has increased from 4 to 37 members, which is very significant. Promotional materials were published and disseminated: a comparative legal study covering eight major issues of socio-civic involvement in the community and an active citizenship guide, which will be the association's reference to socio-civic following interventions.
