Description
The intervention is necessary in order to address the lack of access to education, culture and professional development opportunities for the underprivileged youth of Ferentari neighbourhood, as well as the lack of information about Roma identity and history of culture, which fosters prejudices and erroneous self-perception. The general objective consists of greater access to culture through art, non-formal education and cultural entrepreneurship for the underprivileged youth from Ferentari, through cultural and bilateral cooperation; SO1 concerns greater skills through non-formal education for 28 underprivileged young adults and for the 4 members of the implementation team who will take part in a cultural management program, 2 of whom will also take part in a job-shadowing program for project management; SO2 - raising the level of information and empowerment about Roma culture through 4 community meetings with experts; SO3 - increased cultural offer in Bucharest through 2 original theatre productions and 21 additional cultural products. The role of the bilateral partnership is the development of underprivileged youth from Ferentari through art, offering the benefits of opening up new perspectives, community collaboration and self-expression.
