Young girls from the Roma community start families very early on and many of them do not finish the primary education, and usually do not attend secondary education. This has the impact on their ability to find a job. From their immediate surroundings, these young girls also do not get enough support to their self-realization. The main objective of the project is therefore to support young girls from Roma community in Trebisov and Michalovce district. The organization wants to provide various educational, motivational and physical activities for young girls. Various educational workshops will highlight the importance of continuation of secondary school studies and the selection of future employment. Activities will be focused in these following areas: 1) educational – education in the field of secondary school choice, sex education, financial literacy; 2) physical – organization of regular physical trainings; 3) motivational – motivation to achieve steadiness in the activities carried out, building the ability to set goals and visualizing success. The roles of the partners in the project are as follows: Trhoviste primary school will help recruit and involve girls to the project and municipality of Trhoviste will provide the premises for the implementation of educational activities. The overall goal of the project is to increase the independence, self-confidence and self-esteem of young girls from the Roma community.
