18. May 2022.

Support for the education of children, who are coming from families of lower socio-economic status, has been successfully provided for five years in the primary schools "Dimitrije Tucovic" in Kraljevo and "Milan Rakic" in Mionica, two of 14 schools that are part of the project "Support for education of socially deprived children and youth in Serbia. " The project is implemented by the Ecumenical Humanitarian Organization with the financial support of the German organization Brot für die Welt, and aims to improve the chances and success in educating children from poor families and those belonging to particularly vulnerable categories such as Roma or children with physical disabilities and / or developmental disabilities.

During the visit to the schools, the project team talked to the school principals, teaching staff in charge of the implementation of certain project activities and students who are covered by project support. They monitored the project activities and exchanged experiences and lessons learned.

The field visit was also used to have a conversation with the representatives of the elementary school "Petar Tasić" in Leskovac, which will be included in project activities from the start of the next school year.
