Description
SudActive aims to coagulate, through a strategic intergenerational approach, 4 local civic groups in two of the least developed socio-human and economic regions of the country, South and South-East, regions generally characterized by a low degree of associativity, with few civic initiative organizations, according to the FDSC study „Romania 2017. The non-governmental sector ”. The project develops an efficient mechanism of cooperation between the APD and 2 locally active NGOs (with experience in intergenerational projects), GEAC and Helping Hands Association to act together in Giurgiu, Fundulea (Calarasi), Tulcea and Rahova-Ferentari area, from Bucharest. As a common denominator, the 4 areas are marked by poverty, a low level of human education, a precarious degree of association and the lack of civic initiatives and. In this context, 40 young high school students and seniors from the 4 areas will form the civic nucleus at local level and will benefit from training projects from experts on topics such as: good governance, advocacy, public policies, communication with LPA and so on. Supported by the project team, the 40 will have the role of coagulating the community, so that, finally, 250 young people and seniors from the 4 areas will be able to identify the needs of the community, to plan projects and propose solutions, to put pressure on decision makers to solve 7 problems identified in their communities, to promote their actions and to encourage people to join them and thus become active citizens.
