Description

The project addresses the need of the applicant to boost its capacity, to develop the skills and knowledge of its personnel in order to deliver better services to its target group, i.e. dyslexic children and their parents in Varna. The project activities aim at increasing the efficiency of the applicant and streamlining its work. First, a reception room will be created where the parents will be provided information and counseling. The reception room will be also used for regular meetings of the organization’s members and Board meetings. Second, a coordinator will be appointed able to work with the users, the public institutions and the media. Third, 10 team members will be trained in strategic planning, organizational reforms, volunteer management, advocacy and lobbying. The project will not only benefit the applicant but also indirectly the target group of dyslexic children and their parents.
