When we drafted this project we took into account the following:

  • the rate of illiterate people in vulnerable groups is increasingly in all the Partner countries;
  • the rate of illiterate Roma people is much more than the average of the illiterate people in the Partner countries:
  • till now was not drafted dedicated programs for reducing the illiteracy among people in vulnerable groups, focused on Roma;
  • all the Partners in the project have expertise in education activities for people in vulnerable groups.

As well, we have to mention that:

  • many Roma people are disappointed and they mistrust in the measures taken by the authorities in order to improve their situation;
  • even if some local school institutions tied to organize courses for reducing the illiteracy among Roma, they do not fit the need of these people;
  • we have to take account by the particularities of these social group and to try to attract it to the project activities, even by including some material incentives.

 

The most important objective of the project was the following:

– reducing of the number of functional illiterates among adult Roma in the Partner countries in order to increase their chances to access labour market
