In February, a group of villagers – beneficiaries of our project – participated in two exchanges of experience in the villages of Viscri and Saschiz. They met representatives of local communities, visited educational and processing centers, and visited guest houses where tourists were welcomed. It was a welcome experience. In Saschiz “our delegation” visited the ADEPT Foundation and met with members of the Saschiz Women’s Neighborhood. Two more study visits will follow in the project, in the villages of Mălâncrav and Alma Vii, and the list of participants is open to those who wish. *** These study visits are part of the project’s activity called: Involvement actions in the development of the local economy. The activity aims to develop the capacity of the inhabitants of the village of Archita to participate or initiate and manage an economic activity, based mainly on the sustainable exploitation of local resources: human, cultural, and natural. Within this program, the management team organizes exchanges of experience with similar social economy structures in the area and the organization of educational-cultural events to provide examples of income-generating activities, which could be used to carry out small projects in the community.
