The added value of the project is conferred by the opening of a functional tailoring workshop – Deco Util – within the Protected Unit of Alaturi de Voi Foundation. Six people with disabilities were employed because of the project (3 in the tailoring workshop and 3 in the archiving service). Also, about 150 young people at risk of social exclusion in Iasi, Constanta and Mures have completed training in IT (51), bookbinding (38), tailoring (21), arts and crafts (19), painting (9) and creation of decorative candles (12). Young people have also undertaken a series of local lobbying and advocacy actions aimed at developing and strengthening the social economy sector, subsidizing social services, financing social services and social economy services of NGOs by local and county budgets.
