Local development for disadvantaged communities from Bihor County
01/01/2021 - 28/02/2024
United communities in Bihor
We, the Municipality of Marghita in partnership with Kécenlét Association, the Caritas Eparhial Oradea Association and Skyhøyt Live Scene from Norway, had initiated the integrated project entitled "Local development for disadvantaged communities in Bihor County" for the communities from Cheț village and Finiș Commune in Bihor County in September 2021.
We aim for the members of the two communities to have high access to integrated social services and to increase their satisfaction with the quality of services, for which we train our teams in the application of the restorative practices model.
The project benefits from a grant of € 816918 offered by Norway through the Norwegian Grants within the Local Development Program. The aim of the project is to increase the use of social services by vulnerable groups from 2 socio-economically disadvantaged communities in Bihor County, and to increase their level of satisfaction with regard to the quality of services, in order to increase their quality of life on the long term.
