Curba de Cultur\u0103 is all about reaching out to rural youth. We are an NGO\u00a0committed to non-formal learning, to culture and to participation opportunities. Our focus is to improve education levels and community engagement for the young people living in a rural environment in Romania. We take our work very seriously, yet we do it in a relaxed, witty and humorous spirit. A youthful spirit.<\/p>\n\n

Our main goal is to revitalise the rural environment. In our view, change finds its most fertile ground inthe ones most aptly equipped for change: YOUTH. Their energy and their desire to set a new way of doing things inspired us to provide for them an organisational framework capable of allowing them to implement this change for themselves and for the community they live in. We believe that our projects function as a pilot initiative addressing the issues of rural development, educational accessand better opportunities for the ones who need change and a better life within the rural area.<\/p>\n\n

Our organisation’s headquarters are based in Izvoarele, a small rural community near the town of V\u0103lenii-de-Munte, in Prahova county, Romania.<\/p>\n\n

Curba de Cultur\u0103 focuses on teenagers and youth development. Our mission is to use non-formal education as a complementary method to the formal educational system for young people. We want<\/p>\n\n

to create the premises for a better development of the young people and their more suited integration within their respective communities. We want to make young people aware that they actively belong to their local and national culture.<\/p>\n\n
