ASOCIATIA PENTRU EDUCATIE MULTICULTURALA (A.p.E.M.)

The Association for Multicultural Education is highly interested in coordinating projects in the field of heritage protection and conservation, in promoting and disseminating the European cultural values among the youth, the initiation and participation in national and international volunteer programs, the development of civic, cultural and educational activities for the disadvantaged people, in educating the young people and the community about the promotion of sustainable development and environmental protection, implementing activities aimed at environment preservation and ecological balance, in carrying out joint projects and cooperate with other similar national and international partners.
Our aim is to provide opportunities, develop and empower young people in general and also young people who are disadvantaged phisically, educationally, economically, socially and culturally through self-help and self-governing collective development activities. We want to provide them the access to information and to stimulate them to become actively involved in projects of national and European interest (environment, social inclusion, multicultural dialogue, equal rights, urban and rural development, antidiscrimination, health) in order to learn and guide others in their turn. After all, they could become an Europeanizing force by changing everything that others have not and for that reason they must be consulted and involved in the decisions affecting the future... the future of Romania and Europe!
The Association for Multicultural Education’ members have acquired a relevant prior experience in youth and civil society issues, participating in a multitude of projects organized by national and international NGOs, where they have acquired the skills and the mechanisms of youth networking.
