Naslov projekta: IZVOARELE UNVEILED
Kje, kdaj, kdo: 12 mesečni EVS projekt v Romuniji v mestecu Izvoreale (https://goo.gl/2JRTJh), 4 gostujoči prostovoljci (po en iz Italije, Češke, Slovenije in Španije)
Za koga: Za mlade med 18. in 30. letom starosti, ki so brezposelni ali se soočajo z drugačnimi ekonomskimi ovirami, imajo močno motivacijo oz. željo po mednarodnem prostovoljskem delu in se želijo naučiti še kakšnega evropskega jezika. Poleg naštetega prostovoljec potrebuje tudi motivacijo za učenje in razvijanje novih kompetenc, ter imeti zanimanje v smeri grajenja in razvijanja skupnosti. Potrebno je osnovno znanje angleščine (razumevanje, branje in pisanje).
Kaj boš delal: Prostovoljci boste v okviru projekta izvajali promocijske aktivnosti in kampanje, naredili sociološko raziskavo o življenju na ruralnih področjih Romunije, pridobili boste neprecenljivo izkušnjo življenja v tujini (ruralno območje Romunije), ter osvojili in pridobili znanja potrebna za izdelavo filma, ki bo predstavljal in promoviral izvedeni projekt (več o programu projekta v spodnjih vrsticah).

Hosting environment
Curba de Cultură is all about reaching out to rural youth. We are an NGO committed to non-formal learning, to culture and to participation opportunities. Our focus is to improve education levels and community engagement for the young people living in rural environment in Romania. We take our work very seriously, yet we do it in a relaxed, witty and humorous spirit. A youthful spirit.
Our main goal is to revitalise the rural environment. In our view, change finds its most fertile ground in the ones most aptly equipped for change: YOUTH. Their energy and their desire to set a new way of doing things inspired us to provide for them an organisational framework capable of allowing them to implement this change for themselves and for the community they live in. We believe that our projects function as a pilot initiative addressing the issues of rural development, educational access and better opportunities for the ones who need change and a better life within the rural area.
Our organisation’s headquarters are based in Izvoarele, a small rural community near the town of Vălenii-de-Munte, in Prahova county, Romania. The other affiliate organisations we run are located in Roșia Montana, in Alba county, Transylvania and in Slon village, Prahova county. The youth centres are offering information services, coaching, public libraries, leisure time activities and youth advocacy.
Curba de Cultură focuses on teenagers and youth development. Our mission is to use non-formal education as a complementary method to the formal educational system for young people. We want to create the premises for a better development of the young people and their more suited integration within their respective communities. We want to make young people aware that they actively belong to their local and national culture.
Hosting community
The project is settled in the rural community of Izvoarele village, Prahova County in Romania. The beautiful surroundings and the mountain landscape, shared by both Romanian and Roma ethnics will provide an excellent environment for building trust, tolerance and understanding and will create great personal development opportunities.
The commune has a population of 6268 and it is spread over several hills and river basins. The actual name of the village, Izvoarele, it’s translated as “Springs” as natural springs can be found on each road or alley in the area. The main revenue source in the community is timber processing, as well as small agriculture.
The hosting placement, Izvoarele, is 60 kms from Brasov, 50 kms away from Ploiesti and 110 kms away from Bucharest, the capital and the main city in Romania. The volunteers will live inside the community, which is a regular mountain community in rural Romania. Accommodation will be provided in a traditional rural house, therefore the volunteers will be responsible for their own resource management and will have the opportunity of experimenting the rural life of the community thus developing strong civic and social skills. The temperature does not exceed 30 Celsius in midsummer and can go as well as -12 celsius in midwinter. Izvoarele is a warm hearted community and most people are religious. The main faith is Orthodox, yet Catholic and Adventist communities are present.
The youth centre is serving the local community providing educational activities, training courses, campaigns and events. It also serves as a networking and friendship building framework for young people in the community offering the space and opportunity for planning trips throughout the country and mountain hikes. The youngsters also develop projects in the interest of the community with the help and support of the staff. The youth centre also offers a public library aimed at young people and plenty of games and juggling resources and materials.
Transport
The volunteers will use public transportation (microbus) and bicycles. For local transportation they will receive a monthly transport subscription. A car will be available for the volunteers’ travel to remote locations and during winter.
Food
The volunteer will get 100 euro allowance to buy food by himself/herself. The volunteers have to provide receipts for 100% of the groceries value.
Pocket Money
The volunteer will receive 60 euro at the beginning of every month. The volunteer will get the money in cash or bank transfer.
Accommodation
The accommodation will be provided inside the community in a traditional house. The volunteers will share bedrooms, but they will not be more than 2 people in a room. The house has as well a common space, two bathrooms and a well equipped kitchen. To the end of the second month the volunteers will be paired up with local volunteers and they will spend one week in the houses of some local craftsmen. This time will be spent for research, to collect information and to film the processes of producing different traditional objects and products.
