Description
Given the regress of children’s behaviour in village of Nesvady in the last few years accompanied by less communicational skills, inclination to hate speech and inability to accept Roma children, it was necessary to put on a mechanism which would deal with these problems. The project goal is to establish a well-functioning community centre in this village, which responds to needs of children, youth, and village community in general. Moreover, informal self-support groups will be created and active involvement of marginalised groups will be reinforced.
Summary of project results
In the village of Nesvady, behaviour of children has worsened in last few years. Children do not know how to communicate and they are inclined to use hate speech. They are not able to accept the Roma children living in their community. The project outcomes will sustain due to building up the centre, thus allowing it to continue working in a community and region which are beyond the interest of the general public. The objective of the project was to found a community centre which will respond to and handle in complexity the problems and needs of the local community, youth, family, marginalised groups, but also the general public. The objective was fully met. From a long-term perspective, the community centre has extensive possibilities to address the needs and solve the problems of a number of target groups through working directly with them, developing their skills, and leading them to a responsible approach to both individuals and the entire community. The outcome of the project was defined as: a well-functioning community centre in the village of Nesvady, which responds to the needs and problems of children, young people, and the village community in general, with an active involvement of the marginalised groups from the village. The outcome was fully met. Main outputs: 1 new community centre and 2 new work positions; 3,950 clients of the community centre; 52 training activities; and 68 volunteers. Beneficiaries were involved mainly in developing their life skills, new leisure-time activities and workshops, but also in receiving crisis intervention.
