A solid and responsible community

The general objective of the project is “Community development and improvement of the quality of life of Codlea Municipality, Brasov county by ensuring an integral social intervention in the relevant social fields, namely employment and entrepreneurship, social and socio-medical services and promoting access to information regarding social and citizen rights of community members”. In order to achieve this generous objective, the project provides focused and complementary interventions for the 600 people belonging to the target group, namely people at risk of poverty and social exclusion from the territory targeted by the Local Development Strategy of Codlea. The project aims to offer a wide range of employment services (professional counseling and vocational guidance, work mediation, vocational training), social and socio-medical services (for children, elderly people, families in difficulty and with a large number of children, etc.), entrepreneurship measures through educational support of entrepreneurship, as well as by sustainably supporting the process of setting up businesses from idea to its implementation, as well as other activities to ensure the development of a tolerant and non-discriminatory community”. By what we aim, by corroborating all project activities, we contribute to the achievement of specific objective 5.1. OH, IT’S POCU. The complexity of the proposed project achieves objectives assumed by Romania in the programmatic documents and in its efforts to promote social inclusion and combat poverty as stipulated in Priority Axis 5 of POCU. The purpose of the project also does not deviate from the relevant documents on the basis of which the POCU was defined and thus aims to contribute to the removal from poverty and social exclusion of fragile marginalised groups that can be socially active persons who can contribute to the well-being of the community from which they come, moving from the stage of the socially assisted person to the active person in society. Achieving the general objective through the interactions of the envisaged interventions are designed in a way that ensures long-term effects, social effects by removing from the state of marginalisation of 600 people and economic effects by integrating into the labor market (involvement in active measures) a number of 300 people, of whom 100 will be employed on the local labor market, who initially secured their incomes only from social benefits or occasional work performed in the community. The overall objective of the project is circumscribed and will facilitate the implementation of the Anti-Poverty Package, promoted by the Romanian Government, considering that in order to achieve it will be implemented activities that are clearly stipulated in the national strategy on social inclusion and considered important by the Romanian authorities contributing to the implementation of the measures of the Package.
