Summary of the project:<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

A.C.T.O.R. is using a large spectrum of art tools in young generation education and for social changes. Origami, but also puppetry, shadow theatre\u2026etc are always methods in our volunteers toolbox. In the same time we are aware that are kids and youngsters with few opportunities who do not have access to any kind of artistic or cultural event.<\/p>\n

The project\u2019s\u00a0goal\u00a0 to develop a program targeting the increase of parents` awareness about their role as active citizens in relation with the educative institutions.<\/p>\n

PaC`s OBJECTIVES:<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

1. To help the EVS volunteers to understand the values of active citizenship by doing efforts to stimulate parents to understand their community responsibilities in being more involved in the schools&#39; life of their children.
\n2. To increase the awareness of the EVS volunteers about the importance of the sense of initiative and active participation as well as their skills by fostering the cooperation between parents and educative institutions.
\n3. To develop their competences and a greater understanding of the EU values by sharing their cultural diversity and reaching the awareness of the existence of different teaching and parenting methods, creating strategic actions for parents and schools to understand the educational process.<\/p>\n

With their actions (discussions, workshops, toolbox, etc\u2026) volunteers can contribute exchange among volunteers, children, parents and teachers. Volunteers can propose different and non formal methods to involve both parents and teachers in the activities with children because children learn by doing and playing and this is missing in the education system. As result everyone will gain and become a better citizen.<\/p>\n

Main Activities :<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

– Attending to trainings (On Arrival Training and Mid Term by National Agency and basic trainings in ACTOR about socio-cultural animator, ex. Balloon modelling, origami, puppet theatre, etc\u2026);

\nIn its initial phase, the European Solidarity Corps builds on the currently existing EU Programmes. One of the principal funding schemes contributing to the European Solidarity Corps is the European Voluntary Service. The European Solidarity Corps will thus give impetus and greater visibility to European Voluntary Service activities, while putting volunteering at European level within a larger framework and adding further long-term volunteering opportunities.
