Abstract
The current proposal builds on the needs of children in social care to know their rights and to be empowered so that they can have a
successful transition to independent life. To meet these needs, it is necessary we work on different areas, from documenting the
current situation of children, in particular have up to day information on the factors that influence children well-being and mental
health and to work directly with children and developing programs to empower them and turn them into active citizens.
SO1: Document/ research the impact of Covid19 pandemic had on children living in orphanages and foster care in Romania and
draw conclusions on further actions and policy changes needed to protect vulnerable children amid emergency situations
SO2: Increase participation opportunities for children living in orphanages and foster care by establishing at least 21 local territorial
structures led by informal groups of initiative composed of children that aim to promote and protect the rights of children living in
orphanages and foster care
SO3: Train, empower and motivate 120 children, aged 12-18 living in orphanages and foster care in Romania in becoming activists of
children rights and developing the competences needed to establish an informal group of initiative that runs activities at the local
level in favour of the vulnerable children
SO4: Trigger policy changes that aim to reduce the negative effects Covid19 had on vulnerable children and promote new public
policies that aim to protect vulnerable children during emergency situations by implementing a lobbing and advocacy campaign in
this sense that also involve a meeting between children from orphanages and policy makers.

1. RELEVANCE

1.1 Background and general objectives

Background and general objectives


Describe the background and rationale of the project.
How is the project relevant to the scope of the call? How does the project address the general objectives of the call?
What is the project’s contribution to the priorities of the call?
Which target groups will be supported/assisted by/in the project. Why have you chosen to focus on them?

The coronavirus pandemic has dramatically changed children's lives. Suddenly they couldn't go to
school, couldn't see their friends. Family members were the only support for the lucky children who have
one. There was fear of illness accompanied by the emotional loneliness that children living in
orphanages had hard times in dealing with. Many children have experienced and are still experiencing
anxiety. Some have even gone as far as suicidal thoughts. With restrictions in place early last year to
limit the spread of the virus, children stayed indoors in the residential centres, not seeing their friends,
school colleagues and teachers. For children living in orphanages, foster care (residential centres) this
meant that even the little joy they had was taken away, as the for many the outside world of the
orphanage is the only place they feel understood and loved. Many children in social care do not have
access to digital tools of their own that allowed them to be in contact with friends, thus the feelings of
loneliness increased and triggered many other negative emotions.
The Save the Children Association has done a study to see how deep the scars left by the pandemic on
children are, and the conclusion is a painful one. "One in three children suffered seriously from
behavioural problems, mostly anxiety-induced, and 50% of teenagers with serious problems of
understanding even the real situation to the point of suicide attempts or ideation. We also had two cases
where there were attempts. These states of depression cannot be resolved within the family. They need
a serious assessment by a psychologist or psychiatrist" (George Roman - representative of Save the
Children, Romania).
We though need to mention that all studies at national level in Romania regarding how pandemic
affected children did not involve so far, the children in social care, living in orphanages/ foster homes.
The well-being of these children at all levels is an issue with long history in Romania, and Covid19 has
only worsened their situation.
The Covid19 pandemic has worsen the situation of the children in social care in Romania, these children
being forgotten by the authorities. The consortium implementing this project is working actively with
children living in residential centres and they have reported more negativity, stress, anxiety, depression
more than ever. However, there are no plans at the level of the Authorities in charge with these children
to take any action to fight the negative effects of pandemic. There are no policies and actions that aim to
improve the situation of these children and at or at least offer some kind of care on the effects pandemic
caused to these children. They are completely forgotten by the system as they have always been.
Thus, our project targets children aged 10-18, in living in orphanages/ foster cares (residential care
centres) all over Romania. The project is focusing on these children as the project is developed in
partnership by two organisations that have been established with the scope of protecting the rights and
contributing to the well-being of orphan children. Amid the current situation, the consortium feels a
pressuring need to implement activities aimed at reducing the negative effects Covid19 pandemic had

4
Call: [CERV-2021-CHILD] — [Call for proposals to protect and promote the rights of the child]

EU Grants: Application form (CERV): V1.0 – 01.04.2021

on these children.
The project is in line with the scope of the call of responding to the impact of Covid19 pandemic – within
the project a research will be conducted on the effects of the Covid19 on children living in residential
care in Romania. The recommendations resulted from this research together with the other actions to be
implemented in this project are promoting ways to mainstream orphan children’s rights and to trigger
policy changes.
Within the project activities – Territorial Structures – Informal Groups of Initiative (TS IGI) will be
established at local level in at least 21 counties (50% of the total counties) in Romania. The TS IGI are
established and composed and run by children from orphanages who have been trained to become
activists of children rights with a focus on the rights of children living in residential care. There will also
be a round table and debate between the children who are members of the TS IGI and representatives
of the policy makers in order to trigger policy changes that contribute to the improvement of the situation
of children in social care in Romania. As presented above, with the proposed activities the project meets
the objective of the current call by creating new mechanisms of child participation at local level – the TS
IGI. The TS IGI will continue to exist also after the funding and will be supported ongoing by the
organisations implementing this project.
The project is relevant to the priorities of the call by involving children living in orphanages/ residential
centres in an extensive research at national level focused on the impact of Covid19 had on them. Within
the research results there will be formulated possible strategies of overcoming these negative effects
which will be presented to the public authorities that will be urged to take immediate action. Children will
also be involved in shaping public policies that affect them by organising a round table and debate with
policy makers.

1.2 Needs analysis and specific objectives

Needs analysis and specific objectives (n/a for Programme Contact Points)
Provide a needs assessment. A need is a gap between what is and what should/ would be helpful or useful.
The needs assessment should be your starting point. Specify what needs will be addressed and how they have been
identified. It should be specific and focus on the actual needs of the target group. It should include relevant, reliable
data and, a robust analysis clearly demonstrating the need for the action (therefore, avoid references to generic
statements and information about the problems and needs of the target group). The needs assessment should
incorporate gender equality issues and non-discrimination considerations that identify the differences between and
among women and men, girls and boys, in terms of their relative position in society and the distribution of resources,
opportunities, constraints and power in a given context. The data supporting the needs assessment should be
dissaggregated by sex, as well as age or disability, whenever possible. You can refer to existing research, studies
and previous projects that already demonstrate the need for action.
If your project is supported by a public authority, annex the Letter of support.

The social care system in Romania did not bother to care too much about the mental health and well-
being of the children in social care even before the Covid19 pandemic, and now, more than one year
later after the start of the pandemic still has no plans in doing so. In the last ten years, situation of child
rights institutions in Romania is worsening and there is little interest on the matter.
It should also be noted that the phenomenon of social marginalisation and the lack of concrete
measures for post-institutionalisation integration of children in social care are not a priority for the
authorities. Romania ranks among the first countries in Europe in terms of the number of children and
young people under special protection measures living in state institutions. However, the authorities
have no solutions for the socio-professional integration of this category of vulnerable persons and no
solutions or programs to ensure the mental well-being of these children, or to promote their rights and
social inclusion.
One of the reasons that leads to failure to integrate in society and have a successful transition to
independent life is that children in social welfare do not know their rights. They do not even know that
there are rights which would allow them for example to be able to benefit for two more years of social
protection when turning 18 in order to facilitate their social insertion. Thus, many of these children end
up on the streets at 18 (or 19 when generally the ones who are in still high school finish their formal
studies), with no plans for their life.
The current project is created to meet the needs of children in social care to know their rights and
benefit from policies that ensure their social integration at the moment when they leave the social care
system. The work for ensuring social integration and success of youngsters who leave the social care
system starts since they are children. However, the authorities have no plans and policies to inform
children on the rights they have and to ensure a smooth transition from the social protection system to
independent life. The few programs that exist in this sense at national level are supported by non-profit
organisations.
At national level, there no studies have been made in the last 30 years regarding the transition practices
to independent life of children in social welfare. A study was made by the Visinel Balan (project manager

EU Grants: Application form (CERV): V1.0 – 01.04.2021

of the current proposal) as part of his doctoral studies. His research revealed that 80% of the children
living in orphanages are not aware of their rights.
Children in the child protection system in Romania (either in institutions or with alternative family
arrangements) are girls and boys of all ages, from 0 to 26 (and over). Boys are slightly better
represented than girls (53% compared to 47%). Of all children in the protection system, more than half
(56%) are aged between 10 and 17. However, our project activities are focused to children up to age 18.
Between 2010 and 2020, approximately 39,5007 young people left foster and residential homes
nationwide, an average of 3,950 young people per year.
The current proposal builds on the needs of children in social care to know their rights and to be
empowered so that they can have a successful transition to independent life. To meet these needs, it is
necessary we work on different areas, from documenting the current situation of children, in particular
have up to day information on the factors that influence children well-being and mental health and to
work directly with children and developing programs to empower them and turn them into active citizens.
According to Study on children’s participation in EU political and democratic life Disadvantaged children
are not included in most children’s participation opportunities. Privileged children often have more
opportunities to be included in children and youth councils or parliaments. Thus, our project is creating
representation bodies led by the vulnerable children themselves and brings these children face to face
with policy makers.
The specific objectives of this project are:
SO1: Document/ research the impact of Covid19 pandemic had on children living in orphanages and
foster care in Romania and draw conclusions on further actions and policy changes needed to protect
vulnerable children amid emergency situations
SO2: Increase participation opportunities for children living in orphanages and foster care by
establishing at least 21 local territorial structures led by informal groups of initiative composed of
children that aim to promote and protect the rights of children living in orphanages and foster care
SO3: Train, empower and motivate 120 children, aged 12-18 living in orphanages and foster care in
Romania in becoming activists of children rights and developing the competences needed to establish
an informal group of initiative that runs activities at the local level in favour of the vulnerable children
SO4: Trigger policy changes that aim to reduce the negative effects Covid19 had on vulnerable children
and promote new public policies that aim to protect vulnerable children during emergency situations by
implementing a lobbing and advocacy campaign in this sense that also involve a meeting between
children from orphanages and policy makers.
The project is supported by the National Authority for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, Children
and Adoption.

1.3 Complementarity with other actions and innovation — European added value

Complementarity with other actions and innovation (n/a for Programme Contact Points)
Explain how the project builds on the results of past activities carried out in the field and describe its innovative
aspects. Explain how the activities are complementary to other activities carried out by other organisations.
Illustrate the European dimension of the activities: trans-national dimension of the project; impact/interest for a
number of EU countries; possibility to use the results in other countries, potential to develop mutual trust/cross-border
cooperation among EU countries, etc.
Which countries will benefit from the project (directly and indirectly and why have you chosen them)? Where will the
activities take place?
Clarify to what extent the project builds on synergies with other EU projects. If applicable, explain to what extent your
project builds on previous project results in this field (state of play, relation to existing/recent developments,
approaches, achievements, other EU programmes).
Note: The project should also complement or add benefits to the EU Member States' interventions in the area of
gender equality and non-discrimination mainstreaming.

The project is focused on continuity of actions started by VCA since its founding in 2013 that aim to
empower children living in orphanages and support them to represent themselves in relation with the
authorities in order to stop and prevent abuses that currently take place in the social protection system
all over Romania. The coordinator VCA supports children to denunciate abuses in which they are
victims, inform children about their rights and works toward policy changes in favour of vulnerable
children.
The organisation is actively involved in helping children who are victims of the abuse of the system
(children living in orphanages in Romania suffer from emotional and physical abuse and also are being
given neuroleptic medication without a reason only because the personnel in charge to care for them
wants to control them better). VCA believes the only way to reduce the degree of abuse that currently
happens in the social protection system of the children in Romania is by what can be called a “revolution
of the children” which become active citizens. In this sense, the NGO is making efforts to raise

generations of children activists for their rights.


The project also builds on previous efforts of VCA to research the situation of children in orphanages in
Romania and in making policy changes that contribute to the situation of these children.
One of the innovations of this project is that it involves a critical mass of children that will become
leaders of civic actions of the future. These children will participate in a training for activists of children
rights. The training itself is an innovation as along with workshops on public speaking, advocacy, legal
aspects, children will be involved in special sessions to reset their values and become self-responsible
and also responsible to help other children in orphanages to become aware of their value and raise their
self-esteem to be able to make their voice heard. These children taking part in the training will become a
transformation agent a leader of reorganisation of the social life of children living in orphanages and
foster care. It can be noted that right after the training, the children will create Territorial Structures –
Informal Groups of Initiative that are led by children for children. The project innovation is that it
transforms orphan children in activists of children rights that will be able to make a change in the
system. In Romania, VCA is the only organisation that is working on developing orphan children as civic
activists and the project builds on this innovation.
The project also brings these children face to face with policy makers – while it is acknowledged that
vulnerable children are not represented in youth council or in other forms of participation at local or
national level.
The project also comes to continue the efforts of VCA that in 2016 managed to establish– The council of
Institutionalised Youth CTI. Five years later, there is a need that CTI team (composed only from
abandoned children and youngsters who formerly grew up in orphanages and foster care) is renewed
and attracts more children which will be led to become activist of children rights. In the current project
CTI – The Council of Institutionalised Youth is a partner, this representing a continuation of the previous
efforts of VCA to empower children from orphanages.
Even if the project is implemented only at national level in Romania, the report of the research
conducted in the project will be translated in English and promoted at EU level to be used as an
inspiration by other actors dealing with vulnerable children at EU level. For this, an intense
dissemination campaign at EU level is set to take place. We feel that the two organisations involved in
this project will have the chance to make themselves and their activities known at EU level thus
attracting EU level partners/ stakeholders that work with the same target groups: children living in
orphanages/ foster care. This will lead to a sharing of best practices at EU level and the further
development of mutual proposals.

2. QUALITY

2.1 Concept and methodology

Concept and methodology


Outline the approach and methodology behind the project. Explain why they are the most suitable for achieving the
project’s objectives. Include ethical and safety considerations to ensure that target groups are not subjected to harm
in any way.
Note: Methodology is not a list of activities but are instruments, approaches that will be used, applied and created.

Each activity included in the project will have specific implementation methods depending on the
concrete characteristics of the activity and/or target groups so as to optimally achieve the objectives and
expected results.
The methodology of the sensitization – awareness raising campaign consist in streaming 10 live video
interviews with now youngsters/ adults who once lived in orphanages. During these interviews, the
speakers tell their experiences in orphanages/ foster care and how these impacted them and what was
the road and sacrifices they made to reach success and what determined them to be active citizens.
The interviews tell a story, an emotional story and with the live interview method we aim to make
general public aware of the hardship children in orphanages face but also to show how they can grow
up to bring a positive change in the society, a society that many times rejects and discriminates them.
The Research in the project will be based on sociological methods and all the steps of the research
(focus groups, development of the research, conducting the research, analysis and interpretation of
data) will be based in appropriate measures of sociology studies. Moreover, in the Focus Groups and in
applying the research instrument – where we will be working with children, we will ensure all the ethical
considerations are being respected and children to not feel constrained or affected in any way. We will
use the previous experience in working with children in orphanages in order to prevent any harm.
Moreover, children will be allowed to drop out from any activity in the project, at any pint without needing
to give any explanation and without any further repercussions.
The training that forms children to become activists of children rights will be based on a methodology
developed in the project. The methods will be created/ adapted based on non-formal education

methodology and theories of social constructivism and ensure full involvement of the children
participating. The workshops will also be focused a lot on theatre as the VCA observed in previous
training experiences with children from orphanages that theatre attracts these children and keeps them
motivated. The training methods are to be created by the team of trainers or the project which bring a
combination of expertise as trainers of non-formal education but as well personal experience (as
themselves as former orphan children) combining these with the latest sociological and psychological
discoveries in the field (as one of the trainers’ team members is a sociologist and the other a
psychologist). Among sessions related to advocacy, public speaking and legal aspects the training will
also include transformational methods for the children which act as a “restarting” point in their life.
For the advocay and lobbying campaign, the implementing organisations will use their already existing
contacts in the public and also politic speheres. On one hand, known bloggers and public persons will
be contacted to write/ bring in the public attention the issues of orphan children and the negative effects
of pandemic on their lives in order to attract politicians attention. On the other had, the project manager
of this project has previously worked in the Parliament of Romania and will use the contacts he
maintaines in order to reach the policy makers and promote the causes of the campaigns. Using public
persons and previous contacts is the most suitable way to reach policy makers in Romania and it will
ensure the succes of our campaign. The debate itself will be set up following the procedures of the
„guide to the organisation of public debates on the basis of law no 52/2003”.
The methodology for carrying out the procedures for the procurement of goods and services will be
carried out in compliance with the legislation in force. The data collection methodology will be carried out
in compliance with GDPR laws. The methodology for implementing visibility and dissemination actions
will be carried out using methods from digital marketing, advetrising and public relations.

2.2 Consortium set-up

Consortium cooperation and division of roles (if applicable) (n/a for Town Twinning and Programme
Contact Points)
Describe the participants (Beneficiaries, Affiliated Entities and Associated Partners, if any) and explain how they will
work together to implement the project. How will they bring together the necessary expertise? How will they
complement each other?
In what way does each of the participants contribute to the project? Show that each has a valid role and adequate
resources to fulfil that role.
Note: When building your consortium you should think of organisations that can help you reach objectives and solve
problems.

The coordinator of this project Vocea Copiilor Abandonati (VCA) name translates to The Voice of the
Abandoned Children. VCA is an NGO dedicated to children in protection systems, founded in 2013. The
foundations of the association were laid by Vișinel Balan, a young man who himself grew up in
children's homes in Romania. Unfortunately, many of the employees who take care of abandoned
children do not take on this work professionally. Bureaucracy, disinterest, incorrect or incomplete
information have created an environment that is aggressive to children's development. This translates
into a high percentage of young people who fail to integrate into society after leaving the centres,
adopting deviant behaviour or resorting to dramatic gestures such as suicide. The aim of VCA is to be
there for children growing up in orphanages and foster care, offering them support both through
educational activities and by the simple fact that they have, among the members of the association,
people to whom they can open their hearts, be listened to and loved. Moreover, the NGO wants to make
these children voices heard. VCA believes is right and moral that Romanian citizens should know how
the state institutions work and to what extent they do their job transparently, as they are, after all, funded
from the state budget. The NGO offers programmes to children and young people living in orphanages
and foster centres that teach them about their legal rights and obligations and show them the legal ways
to contact the competent authorities.
The organisation implements several activities for children in orphanages, including a day centre for
counselling, education, leisure time and social activities for disadvantaged children and youngsters,
orphans or homeless youngsters aged 14-26. It offers a safe space where the youngsters can benefit for
programs of: - Life skills workshops - Counselling, therapy and support - Education and training
(Therapy trough art and leadership, socio-professional integration. Health and life style, academic
support) - Involvement in community - Personal development and Leisure time activities.
The organisation supports children who suffer abuses in orphanages (children directly contact the NGO
when they face an issue) and children receive support depending on the nature of the abuse. The
organisation realises also actions such as support for poor children. It also opened a social house for
homeless youngsters where they receive support to develop their skills for independent life.
The organisations members are sociologist, psychologist and counsellors, educators, trainers, etc.

People, by institutionalised we understand living in state institutions such as orphanages) – CTI has as
main purpose to act to defend and promote the rights of institutionalised and non-institutionalised (post-
institutionalised) young people in the special protection system, to increase their active participation in
the life of their communities, and to advocate and promote the common interests of its members at local,
regional, national, European and international level. The Council also promotes education, values and
respect for human life among young people in institutions. The Council aims to prepare, inform and train
young people in institutions for the family and society life and to create the necessary framework for
their personal and professional development. The Council for Institutionalized Youth is a social service
provider accredited by the Ministry of Labour and Social Justice in Romania. CTI is a member of
EuroChild - www.eurochild.org network.
VCA and CTI will closely work together to meet the objectives of the project. The two organisations
already work together as they have the same target group. However, CTI is more focused on work at
regional level and has members all over the country.
VCA members have strong skills and previous experiences in project management. Another huge asset
they bring to this project is their experience in working with policy makers and public authorities which is
essential. VCA has managed in the past to bring forward policy changes for vulnerable children.
CTI brings in this project the contribution of having very good contacts in the orphanages all over
Romania and in being in close relation with children from orphanages. Like this they already have the
trust of these children and the children will be much more open and eager to get involved in the project
activities. CTI is currently contacted on an ongoing basis by children who suffer abuses and CTI helps
them in taking the necessary actions depending on the case.

2.4 Consortium management and decision-making

Consortium management and decision-making (if applicable) (n/a for Town Twinning and Programme
Contact Points)
Explain the management structures and decision-making mechanisms within the consortium. Describe how decisions
will be taken and how regular and effective communication will be ensured. Describe methods to ensure planning and
control.
Note: The concept (including organisational structure and decision-making mechanisms) must be adapted to the
complexity and scale of the project.

The project will be managed by a project manager and assistant project manager on behalf of VCA and
a project manager from CTI. Decisions will be taken based on consensus inside the consortium. At the
beginning of the project an internal meeting (kick-off meeting) with VCA and CTI members involved in
the project is foreseen in order to define and clarify all the management aspects, as well as periodical
meetings during the project implementation. The methods that will be used in the project management
are: planning of activities, briefing meetings and checking the status of project implementation,
monitoring the use of resources through budgets.
Mainly, all the project team members will be involved in each WP planned both because of their
experiences and also because the scale of the project requires so. A knowledge and involvement in all
the WP of the project is necessary for the good implementation. Team members will closely work
together while the management team will monitor the project against the set indicators.

2.5 Project management, quality assurance and monitoring and evaluation strategy

Project management, quality assurance and monitoring and evaluation strategy


Describe the measures planned to ensure that the project implementation is of high quality and completed in time.
Describe the methods to ensure good quality, monitoring, planning and control.
10
Call: [CERV-2021-CHILD] — [Call for proposals to protect and promote the rights of the child]

EU Grants: Application form (CERV): V1.0 – 01.04.2021

Describe the evaluation methods and indicators (quantitative and qualitative) to monitor and verify the outreach and
coverage of the activities and results (including unit of measurement, baseline and target values). The indicators
proposed to measure progress should be relevant, realistic and measurable.
Note: The monitoring and evaluation strategy should also incorporate gender and non-discrimination considerations
in order to measure changes and assess impact on gender equality issues. The indicators should be gender
responsive so that they can measure gender equality changes over time. For instance, a gender responsive indicator
can measure the increase in women’s rate of employment or changes in social attitudes towards gender roles in
work-life balance. The evaluation should be participatory and inclusive to all stakeholders, ensuring that women’s and
men’s voices are prevalent throughout the entire evaluation process.

The project management will be ensured by the project management team composed of two experts –
one on behalf of VCA and one on behalf of CTI. The project manager from VCA (Visinel Balan), in
charge with the overall management has over 16 years of experience in managing projects for non-profit
organisations from public and private funding.
The project management will take place during the whole implementation period and will consider the
specific phases of the project life cycle: initiation, planning, scheduling of activities and resources, risk
management, implementation, monitoring and completion of the project. Regular monitoring and
evaluation of the project status and how the project objectives have been achieved will be carried out.
Based on the results of this monitoring, the next steps to be taken to achieve the objectives will be
adapted. To ensure an efficient communication, the ways, modalities and rules of communication
between the project partners as well as between the team members will be created and a management
of the communication systems at the partnership level will be carried out.
The quality evaluation system will be guaranteed by ensuring a good information management and by
using IT means to organize and archive the results of the activities. The computerisation of all significant
phases will be carried out, organising and updating an archive that will contain all data related to the
project.
The main monitoring tools that will be used in the project management are: Continuous monitoring
report, bi-weekly/monthly; Quarterly technical report; Technical-financial report; Progress/work report
completed periodically - weekly/monthly, by the implementation team - Soft-ware monitoring system,
(Project Management Software), - Periodical synthesis analysis relevant to the indicators, - Time-Cost
and BCWP (Budget-Cost-Work-Performed) chart, - ACWP (Actual Cost Work Performed) chart. Special
attention will be given to risk analysis throughout the project implementation period in order to intervene
in time to reduce implementation risks. The evaluation of the project activity will be carried out both
through internal and external evaluation by an independent expert evaluator.
The evaluation will include quantitative methods - statistical study, data analysis, application of
questionnaires, as well as qualitative methods. The internal evaluation will be done by: checking
compliance with the action plan; analysing the level of involvement of the beneficiaries in the actions
undertaken, reports of the members of the implementation team on the activities carried out; evaluation
of the training programmes by the children participating, the degree of satisfaction of the beneficiaries
included in the project activities, the degree of visibility of the project, the degree of achievement of the
results and objectives set within the project. The project will end with an analysis of the lessons learnt,
the information and skills acquired that can be transferred to other projects for promotion of the rights of
vulnerable children.
Foreseen quality indicators:
Positive evaluation of the training for children’s rights activists from the participants; Positive feed-back
from the stakeholders (public authorities, institutions, etc.) regarding the content of the research report;
Increased motivation and empowered children to continue to develop as activists for human rights;
Positive feed-back of the policy makers as a result of the debates with children
Foreseen quantity indicators:
Number of focus groups with children from orphanages: 10; Number of instruments for research
developed: 1; Number of questionnaires applied to children from orphanages as part of the research:

2.6 Cost effectiveness and financial management

Cost effectiveness and financial management (n/a for prefixed Lump Sum Grants)

Call: [CERV-2021-CHILD] — [Call for proposals to protect and promote the rights of the child]

EU Grants: Application form (CERV): V1.0 – 01.04.2021

Describe the measures adopted to ensure that the proposed results and objectives will be achieved in the most cost-
effective way.
Indicate the arrangements adopted for the financial management of the project and, in particular, how the financial
resources will be allocated and managed within the consortium.
Do NOT compare and justify the costs of each work package, but summarize briefly why your budget is cost
effective.

The project maintains an appropriate balance of individual and collective partner activities and costs. In
order to make the project proposal cost and time effective, all tasks, activities and costs were planned
after negotiations between VCA and CTI. Daily rates and unit prices are calculated on real value,
according to local conditions and regular practice used by CTI and VCA for their everyday operation and
service delivery.
To make the budget, we have carefully planned the needed period to complete each task and the
appropriate resources. A detailed budget was compiled separately, thus upon project implementation
the initial detailed will be reviewed.
The timetable set up for all project activities is optimal from the point of view of appropriate preparatory
activities, actions to be undertaken and results to be achieved. The coordinator will guarantee that the
distribution will comply with the budget, drafted according to the funding rules determined by European
Commission.
VCA due to its experience in managing funding (as the NGO runs constantly project funded by private
donors) will oversee the budget and manage its correct use. The sums allocated for each task will be
distributed accordingly.
Cash inflows and outflows will be recorded under a cash-flow statement. During the regular meetings of
the consortium, the budget spending and organizational expenses will be discussed. This is mostly to
assure that the project spending is within the initial plan of the project, and also to make sure that all the
expenses stay within the expectations and no surprises occur on the way. During these meetings we will
consider risk factors and make essential arrangements to prevent them. After the budget is allocated
among CTI and VCA, through regular budget reports and feedback we will make sure that those
expenses stay within expectations.
We kept the budget low by considering the work that the team members will cover overall as well, not
only inside each work package. For example, our team of management will actively work in WP4,
however only a smart part of the budget for human resources was added there.

2.7 Risk management

Critical risks and risk management strategy (n/a for Town Twinning)
Describe critical risks, uncertainties or difficulties related to the implementation of your project, and your
measures/strategy for addressing them.
Indicate for each risk (in the description) the impact and the likelihood that the risk will materialise (high, medium,
low), even after taking account the mitigating measures.
Note: Uncertainties and unexpected events occur in all organisations, even if very well-run. The risk analysis will help
you to predict issues that could delay or hinder project activities. A good risk management strategy is essential for
good project management. The strategy should also incorporate risk mitigation measures that redress any gender
inequalities and multiple discriminatory effects in project implementation. For instance, to ensure full participation of
target groups in project activities, gender, age or disability-specific constrains should be taken into acount. The target
groups may face more than one barrier to access project activities (accessibility barriers; language barriers,
availibility of childcare provision, etc ). Therefore, it is essential to identify these risks and undertake preventive
measures in order to ensure full partcipation of women and men in all their diversity in project design and
implementation.

3. IMPACT

3.1 Impact and ambition

Impact and ambition


Define the short, medium and long-term effects of the project.
Who are the target groups? How will the target groups benefit concretely from the project and what would change for
them? In what way will the gap identified be reduced? How will the activities contribute to improve the situation
(difference between starting point/state of play and the situation after the end of the project?) How will the activities
contribute to the promotion and advancement of gender equality and non-discrimination mainstreaming?
Does the project aim to trigger change/innovation? If so, describe them and the degree of ambition (progress beyond
the status quo).
Note: Results/outcomes are immediate changes that materialise for the target groups after the end of the project
(e.g. improved knowledge, increased awareness). Results/outcomes are different to deliverables. Deliverables are
activities undertaken and outputs produced with the resources allocated to the project, e.g. training courses,
conferences, manuals, video etc.
When defining expected results/outcomes and deliverables please consider if and how they will reduce, maintain, or
increase inequalities between women and men, boys and girls, in all their diversity. What gender, age and disability
differentiated results can be expected? How expected results will affect women and men, boys and girls from a range
of diverse social groups, differently?

The long-term ambition of the project is to ensure that all children in Romania (and at EU level) who
grow up in foster care/ orphanages are aware of their rights and able to support their voice thus growing
up as adults who fully manage to integrate in the society and bring positive improvements to the
community. We know that in order to achieve this impact we have to work on a systematic level and
impact several target groups.
The innovation of this project is the creation of local structures led by children who are trained in
promoting children rights and growing up a generation of children who are activists for children rights
and motivate and empower as well their peers. On the long term this changes the actual situation where
statics show that over 80% of children living in orphanages are not aware of their rights, suffer of low
self-esteem and will not integrate in the society once they are forced to leave the social care system
(most of them ending up on the streets as homeless or delinquents). Local structures who are led by
children give these children and unique opportunity to not only get involved in shaping the public policies
concerning them, but also develop a multitude of competences for these children (competences related
to the direct activities of the structures and as well competences that come indirect such as soft skills,
increased self-esteem, emotional management). With years of experience in addressing the target
group, we know that this is at the moment one of the best solutions for the social integration of these
children for which now the public system does not have concrete solutions to improve their future
perspectives for social integration and well-being.
The target groups impacted by our project are:
Children living in orphanages, foster care in Romania; the staff of the involved organisations
VCA and CTI and other stakeholders taking part in the project; public policy makers in charge
with children’s rights policies;
The short-term impact envisioned:
•Children will become more aware on how they were affected by Covid19 – via the discussions they will
have in the development of the research instrument. Awareness is the first factor to be considered in
developing measures to fight the effects of pandemic and overcoming any trauma
•The implementing organisations and other stakeholders and national, regional and local authorities and
public bodies acting in the field of social protection of children (in particular vulnerable children) will gain
knowledge on the impact Covid19 had on the children living in orphanages and will become aware of
the strategies and recommendation to be taken to support overcoming negative effects of pandemic.
This effect will be seen thanks to the Research report and it is one of the reasons VCA will ensure this
report is also printed and sent out to the relevant institutions.
•Increased knowledge regarding children rights and how to support them for the 120 children who will be
trained in becoming activist for children rights
•Decision-makers in local and regional authorities acting the field of social protection and children rights
will: a) become aware and informed on the negative effects Covid19 had on children living in orphanage
and will be pursued via the advocacy and lobby campaign to take immediate action and adopt
mechanism that support the well-being of children living in orphanages and combat the pandemic
effects on these children; b) they will acknowledge the needs of supporting children in social care and to
create better policies for them, in particular policies and activities to be applied in emergency situations
thanks to the debates organised in which they will met and discuss with the children members of TS-IGI
The medium-term impact:
It is expected that the participating organisations VCA and CTI and their staff will be more prepared to
implement national level projects for children, to manage projects funded by EU and to further pursue

Furthermore, cooperation among organizations and public actors dealing with orphan children will be
enhanced during the project activates, creating favourable preconditions for future projects and other
European projects. Based on this project, following its results, the scope of the work will be set. The
gained competences through the process will be followed up by having further projects on this topic,
setting up programs where the results will be used etc. Moreover, we expect that by translation the
research result in English and intensively promoting it at EU level, VCA and CTI will be able to establish
contacts at EU level and work in partnership with other NGOs that develop activities for vulnerable
children.
The territorial structures led by the Informal Groups of Initiative of children will start functioning,
developing new activities in support of children in orphanages and in promoting and mainstreaming
children rights. The children involved in the TS-IGI will develop their competences in regard to
participation and thus they will be able to have an active voice when it comes to decision making
processes that relate to children in orphanages and strategies and measures taken when they are faced
with emergency situations.
The project has a strong component of advancement for the non-discrimination via de sensitising/
raising awareness campaign it planned. General public will become more sensible to the issues faced
by children growing up in orphanages thus leading to a more positive public perception of this and better
social inclusion of the groups of children facing multiple discrimination
The long-term effects:
Social inclusion – in particular for children facing multiple discrimination as a result of better knowledge
of their rights. The project builds on the idea that children in orphanages are not aware of their rights in
relation with the public authorities this leading to a failure as adults.
Also, previous experience of VCA shows that children that over 70% of children who were involved in
their programs manage to socially integrate at the existing of the social protection system.
The children who grow up as activists in the TS-IGI will become active citizens as adults as well and
they will further trigger positive actions to children, to their own lives and society.
As a result of this project, the partners will have a better picture of how to approach children on some of
the most challenging topics in an effective way, focusing mainly on vulnerable children. Eventually,
benefit of this process will have organizations’ target group – the orphan children themselves. However,
those benefits will be felt mainly after the implementation of this project, as it will take a few years to
explore, analyse, innovate and change public policies.
Other stakeholders such as networks of organizations; public bodies and institutions managing social
services for children at regional/national/EU, NGOs etc., will benefit directly of the project’s outputs.
These organisations would be able to freely use the research report and other outcomes for their
members, activities and projects.

3.2 Communication, dissemination and visibility

Communication, dissemination and visibility of funding


Describe the communication and dissemination activities which are planned in order to promote the activities/results
and maximise the impact (to whom, which format, how many, etc.). Clarify how you will reach the target groups,
relevant stakeholders, policymakers and the general public and explain the choice of the dissemination channels.
Describe how the visibility of EU funding will be ensured.
Communication and dissemination activities should also contribute to the promotion of gender equality and non-
discrimination. Communication materials should use gender inclusive language and positive visual representations.
E.g.: When developing videos or leaflets ensure that women and men, in all their diversity, are equally represented in
a non-stereotypical fashion and portrayed in active empowered roles. In addition, consider using communication
channels that they are accessible to general audience, in particular to persons with disabilities, or people from
marginalised groups.

The team of the project involves a member specialised in marketing that will be responsible with the
process of communication, dissemination and exploitation of the results.
The communication and dissemination activities plan include:
1. Branding the project (visual identity, banners, etc.) and adding a page of the project on the websites
of VCA and CTI to present the project available in Romanian and English languages.
2. Visibility activities
Online press: contacting bloggers and online press websites for promoting the project and publishing
articles on the subject;
Traditional press: contacting journalists from regional and national newspapers and TV stations for
publishing articles on the project topics;
During the project lifetime we will intensely promote the project on social media and websites of CTI and
VCA and their partners and supporters, websites dedicated to children, education, social issues etc.
We will use newsletters, social media campaigns, digital marketing tools, etc. (that include a variety of
15
Call: [CERV-2021-CHILD] — [Call for proposals to protect and promote the rights of the child]

EU Grants: Application form (CERV): V1.0 – 01.04.2021

content like videos, articles, interviews, multi-media).


3. Dissemination events related to the different project key stages
3.1 Press conference at the launch of the research report
The press conference envisions a number of 50 participants, among which journalists, stakeholders,
policy makers
3.2 Sensitisation Campaign – Awareness Rising related to the issues of children facing multiple
discrimination This campaign will be created based on video interviews conducted with adults that have
grown up in orphanages and now managed to be successfully integrated in the society and overcome
the challenges that come with growing up as an orphan. These adults are now active citizens and bring
improvement to the community they live in with their jobs and daily actions. These interviews will be live
streamed on the social media (Facebook and YouTube channels of VCA and CTI) and later on
promoted as part of the campaign. The campaign is set to last for 3 months and has as target group the
general public. The aim is to showcase the issues and challenges children have when growing up as
orphanages and to fight the stigma and discrimination that public has towards these groups. Digital
Marketing tools will be used to reach the target group.
4 Reaching the target groups (orphan children and representatives of the government/ policy makers)
4.1 Below the line activities includes distributing fliers and organising information sessions in
orphanages to potential participants to stimulate their interest in taking part in the project activities and
information campaigns at local and regional level;
To attract policy makers/ representatives of the government VCA will use their already existing contacts
with former and current politicians and campaigns via known bloggers and artists in Romania to
determine the targeted policy makers to take part in the planned debates. VCA already has a good
relation with some of the most read bloggers in Romania and with artists (like actors and TV public
persons) that are involved in supporting the causes promoted by the NGO.
The dissemination activities address the following target groups:
-Press, journalists, media at local, regional and national level; NGOs all over Europe who can use the
research results to replicate/create new activities for children at risk; Social workers, educators, etc. who
can benefit from the knowledge gathered to improve the work they do for children; Local and regional
government, schools, teachers and institutions working with orphan children at local level; General
public interested in the issues of the society; Children in general and in particular children facing social
issues, orphans that will become aware more of their rights and how they can access them; Policy
makers, MPs and other members of public policy institutions.
In all the activities of visibility and dissemination, the support received by the project from the EU will be
ensured by using the official logos and disclaimers required. Moreover, in all the articles and the
publications the EU funding will be mentioned making clear that the project would not have been
possible without EU support. It is also planned a session of presentation of the EU CERV programme in
the press conference (at the launch of the Research Report).
Moreover, in the meetings with the target group – children (local meetings, the training course) the EU
funding topic will be approached and also a discussion on EU values will be included as a separate
session. We have planned this to ensure that children are made aware of the efforts EU is making to
protect them and to increase their positive feelings towards the EU.
Format of the dissemination activities:
The dissemination activities will make use of the latest digital marketing tools (including paid social
media campaigns, Google Ads, digital content). As well, traditional advertising tools and methods will be
use to increase the impact and reaching a higher audience.
For proper and wider dissemination of the project and its activities we will carry out on-line and physical
dissemination activities. The on-line dissemination activities will be carried out through the social
medias; informative articles published in local and national web portals; by publishing project related
information on the project partner's web sites and social media; by active discussion, regular posts
about the project's activities, opinions asking d on the social media for the project; e-Newsletters
delivered to partners e-mailing lists.
The objectives of the dissemination plan are the following:
-Increase the visibility of the project activities and EU funded programs; Attract new partners/stake-
holders which can support the activities implemented at local and national level; Share the project
results and inspire good practices; Promote and mainstream children rights and the need to improve
national policies in the field; Creating new programs that support children rights by attracting new
partners that have similar objectives and activities; Promote non-discrimination of children growing up in
orphanages, in particular those affected by multiple discrimination; Increase the visibility of VCA, CTI
The dissemination plan will run during the lifetime of the project, with a peak at the beginning for
attracting stakeholders and at the end for informing the market on the results and success of the project.
Quality indicators included in the actions:
Professional and adequate communication tools adapted to the target groups of each communication
action; Quality of articles and visibility materials (e.g., quality of content videos of good quality,
professional photos, catchy campaigns and texts); SEO elements; The contribution to the promotion of
gender equality and nondiscrimination; Gender inclusive language and positive visual representation
The use of communication channels accessible to several audiences, including persons with disabilities,
16

or people from marginalised groups.


The minimum quantity indicators to be reached with the visibility and dissemination plan are:
Articles about the project: at least 21; Pots on social media: 90; Reach on social networks: min. reach of
100000; Articles / offline mentions in local newspapers / TV / radio shows, at least 3; Mailing lists to min.
1400 people covered by the partnership; 3 newsletters issued during the project lifetime; Meetings with
local stakeholders at regional level 3 – as a follow up of the national debates; Prees conference 1;
Sensitising/ Awareness raising campaign 1
On a European level, we will disseminate the project results mainly using the research report. The
outputs will be made available online to anyone who is interested. The organizations involved in this
project will take all measures to publish the outcomes at relevant sites and to inform all other potentially
interested organizations about them.
Monitoring dissemination. Specific indicators to measure dissemination strategy and tools to collect data
will be used to monitor and evaluate dissemination strategy.

3.3 Sustainability and continuation

Sustainability, long-term impact and continuation


Describe the follow-up of the project after the EU funding ends. How will the project impact be ensured and
sustained?
What will need to be done? Which parts of the project should be continued or maintained? How will this be
achieved? Which resources will be necessary to continue the project? How will the results be used?
Are there any possible synergies/complementarities with other (EU funded) activities that can build on the project
results?

The follow-up of the project is focused mainly on:


1. the continuous support given to the TS-IGI
2. Using the research results
1. An important component of the project that will be maintained are the Territorial Structures – Informal
Groups of Initiative TS-IGI (WP3). VCA and CTI will ensure continuous support of these structures for
an indefinite period. Using other sources of funding, like sponsors and donors, CTI and VCA plan to
organise regular training courses for children from the orphanages who wish to become actively
involved in the TS-IGI. Evry year, a new generation of children who wish to be activists of children rights
will be formed. It is envisioned that at least every summer, a minimum number of 30 children all over
Romania, belonging to the target group, will participate to a training for development of competences
needed to actively engage in the TS-IGI.
Furthermore, it is previsioned to obtain further funding from private or public sources and to establish
TS-IGI at the level of all Romania to have a complete representation and give a change to all the
children in foster care to become activists.
2. The research results will be used in shaping public policies for children in orphanages/ foster care.
VCA will continue its actions of lobbying and advocacy at the level of the Parliament in Romania to
improve the policies that support children rights. The results of the research are also a starting point in
developing measures, strategies and policies to ensure wellbeing of children from the target group and
promote their rights among diverse emergency situations.
As the research results will be also available in English, another follow-up of the project can be
represented by sharing and mainstreaming good-practices in the field at EU level. We envision that the
promotion of the research results at EU level will help the implementing organisations to establish
contacts with other stakeholders at EU level with similar mission.
Regrading synergies and complemntarities with other EU funded we forsee that the Erasmus+ Youth
Participation Activities can be used by the newly createed TS-IGI to access funding to develop their
actions at local level that increase the participation in the civic society and help bring together children
and decision makers at local, regional, national level to improve policies aimed at orphan children.

4. WORK PLAN, WORK PACKAGES, TIMING AND SUBCONTRACTING

4.1 Work plan

Work plan
Provide a brief description of the overall structure of the work plan (list of work packages or graphical presentation (Pert chart or similar)).

WP1: Project management and coordination; WP2 Research about the impact of Covid19 pandemic on children living in orphanages and foster care in Romania; WP3
Development of Territorial Structures Informal Groups of Initiative, including training of activists for the rights of institutionalized children; WP4 Lobbying and Advocacy
Campaign;
WP1 takes place on the entire projects duration and is essential for the project implementation. WP1 also includes the visibility and dissemination activities, among which we
would like to highlight the Sensitisation – Raising Awareness Campaign and the Press Conference at the launch of the research report. WP2 starts by involving the children
in the target group in building a research instrument via a series of focus groups and then leading to an extensive research at national level and its final result is the research
report. WP3 is focused on growing a generation of children that become activists of children rights and are empowered as active citizens on a long term. Finally, WP4
forwards actions that aim to trigger policy changes in the benefit of vulnerable children and promote activities that help children in orphanages overcome negative effects of
pandemic.

4.2 Work packages and activities

WORK PACKAGES

This section concerns a detailed description of the project activities.


Group your activities into work packages. A work package means a major sub-division of the project. For each work package, enter an objective (expected outcome) and list the activities,
milestones and deliverables that belong to it. The grouping should be logical and guided by identifiable outputs.
Projects should normally have a minimum of 2 work packages. WP1 should cover the management and coordination activities (meetings, coordination, project monitoring and evaluation, financial
management, progress reports, etc) and all the activities which are cross-cutting and therefore difficult to assign to another specific work package (do not try splitting these activities across
different work packages). WP2 and further WPs should be used for the other project activities. You can create as many work packages as needed by copying WP1.
For very simple projects, it is possible to use a single work package for the entire project (WP1 with the project acronym as WP name). For Lump Sum Grants, each event should be one work
package.
Work packages covering financial support to third parties ( only allowed if authorised in the Call document) must describe the conditions for implementing the support (for grants: max amounts
per third party; criteria for calculating the exact amounts, types of activity that qualify (closed list), persons/categories of persons to be supported and criteria and procedures for giving support; for
prizes: eligibility and award criteria, amount of the prize and payment arrangements).
Please limit the number of work packages and reduce the number of deliverables (max 10 to 15 for the entire project). (n/a for Lump Sum Grants).
Enter each activity/milestone/output/outcome/deliverable only once (under one work package).

at regional level and also ANDPDCA to present this opportunity and
establish a collaboration in this regard. If there will be more
willingness from the authorities, the counties will be selected based on
the number of children in foster care (the ones with a higher number
of children) and also regional balance will be considered. We have
chosen to focus just on 21 counties at the work volume to establish
these centers is very high, however as a sustainability plan it is
foreseen that after the end of the project CTI and VCA will take the
necessary actions to increase the number of TS-IGI until the point all

residential care have limited access to communication channels and
sometimes to digital instruments, the selection team will make extra
efforts to be in contact with all centers where the opportunity was
promoted. No specific format for the motivation of children will be
asked from the same reason (requiring a motivation letter of a specific
type might block the children sometimes).
The selection process will be inclusive and non-discriminative.

include sessions that prepare the children for the debates that will be
later organized in WP4 with representatives of the policy makers.
Also, it will include activities related to the EU project, EU values and

observation will be ensured by the organizational team to prevent any
wanted event and also to ensure the well-being and physical and
mental safety and care of the children participating.

Note: Subcontracting concerns the outsourcing of a part of the project to a party outside the consortium. It is not simply about purchasing goods or services. We normally expect that the participants
have sufficient operational capacity to implement the project activities themselves. Subcontracting should therefore be exceptional.
Include only subcontracts that comply with the rules (i.e. best value for money and no conflict of interest; no subcontracting of coordinator tasks). Make sure that subcontractors are aware of the
principles of gender mainstreaming and non-discrimination mainstreaming.

5.1 Ethics and EU values

Ethics and EU values


Describe ethics issues that may arise during the project implementation and the measures you intend to take to
solve/avoid them.
Describe how you will ensure gender and non-discrimination mainstreaming in the project cycle. This means
integrating gender equality and non-discrimination considerations in the design, implementation, monitoring and
evaluation of project activities. Projects activities should be pro-active and contribute to the equal empowerment of
women and men, girls and boys, in all their diversity, and ensure that they achieve their full potential, enjoy the same
rights and opportunities. Gender and non-discrimination mainstreaming are a key mechanism for achieving gender
equality and combating multiple and intersecting discrimination. In the delivery of project activities gender
mainstreaming shall be ensured by systematically monitoring access, participation, and benefits among different
genders, and by incorporating remedial action that redresses any gender inequalities and discriminatory effects in
implementation of planned activities. The activities shall also seek to reduce levels of discrimination suffered by
particular groups (as well as those at risk of multiple discrimination) and to improve equality outcomes for individuals.
If your project has a direct or indirect impact on children and their rights, indicate it clearly here. Make sure that your
project is based on a child rights approach, i.e. that all the rights of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the
United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and the Optional protocols, are promoted, respected,
protected and fulfilled. The project should address children as rights holders and should ensure their participation in
the design and implementation of the project. If you will have direct contacts with children you will have to provide a
child protection policies in line with the Keeping Children Safe Child Safeguarding Standards.
Explain how you intend to address privacy/data protection issues related to data collection, analysis and
dissemination.
Outline measures to be taken and the policies in place to guarantee full compliance with the EU values mentioned in
Article 2 of the Treaty on the European Union and Article 21 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

The ethical issues in this project are related to the direct involvement of children in the planned
activities. The implementation strategy will avoid any unethical situations related to their participation.
The associations implementing this project have an extensive experience in working with children from
orphanages/ foster care and therefore internal rules guaranteeing ethical treatment of all children and
clear Child Protection Policies. These procedures are built in accordance with children's rights legislation
at national and EU level.
The principle of equal opportunities and non-discrimination is a constant in the work carried out by the
applicant in accordance with the policies promoted at EU level. According to the Law no. 202/2002 on
equal opportunities between women and men, it means taking into account the different abilities, needs,
aspirations of people regardless of gender and treating them equally. The application of the principle is
carried out according to the legal regulations in the field of equal opportunities: Law 202/2002;
OU137/2000 on the prevention and sanctioning of forms of discrimination; Labour Code; Romanian
Constitution. These will be put into practice at each level and activity implemented in the project.
The implementation team is made up of people who have been selected regardless of gender, age,
disability, religious affiliation, ethnicity, political views, HIV/AIDS infection, LGBTIQ affiliation, who have
the necessary skills to fulfil the responsibilities and tasks specific to each position (as a matter of fact, in
the proposed team 4 members grew up as children in orphanages, and two of these also a have
physical disability). The selection of new employees will be based on a competitive process in
compliance with the legislation in force and ensuring the principles of equal opportunities. The
procedures for awarding contracts for goods/services will comply with the principles and rules in
accordance with the European legislation in force: non-discrimination; equal treatment; mutual
recognition; transparency; efficient use of public funds; assumption of responsibility; avoidance of
conflict of interest; non-retroactivity of the contract.
The theme of the project is closely related to children's rights, as the project seeks to facilitate the
implementation of children's rights and to facilitate children's access to express their voice on the
policies adopted by governments regarding orphaned children. The project generates an increased
awareness of the situation of orphaned children and a process that aims to improve the legislation
protecting orphaned children to facilitate their better social integration when they leave the protection
system, non-discrimination and integration as well as opportunities for increasing the standard of living
and quality of life of these children.
The project is focused on children as rights holders and its main aim is to empower children to make
their voice heard and exercise their rights. Children are involved in designing the research instrument of
the project as well they are actively involved in the training dedicated to the and active participants in the
debates with the policy makers.
The project corresponds to EU priorities and strategic objectives of social cohesion, fight against
discrimination, participatory democracy, better governance, sustainable development.
In addition, in the project we have planned a public sensitising campaign in relation to orphan children

affected by multiple discrimination (Roma, LGBTIQ, disability) thus reducing levels of discrimination
suffered by these groups and contributing to equality and social inclusion.
The data collection in this project will be done taking into account the GDPR legislation in force at EU
level and the national laws imposed. The answers collected from children in the research carried out in
the project will be anonymous and it will be ensured children are not affected in any negative way by
their involvement in the project activities.
Concerning the identification and selection of the target group, the principles of equal opportunities will
be respected and promoted through a correct information of the children in the placement centres about
the opportunities offered by the project, regardless of gender, nationality, sexual orientation, race,
ethnicity, religion, political choice, social origin, disability, HIV infection. Objective criteria for selecting
research respondents and participants in the training course for children's rights activists: willingness to
participate in activities. A balanced participation of all gender categories in the project activities and
representation of groups suffering multiple discrimination will be ensured by proactive measures taken
by the team members responsible with the selection of participants in activities.
Girls, children with different physical and mental illnesses as well as Roma children and children
belonging to the LGBTIQ community are strongly discriminated against in orphanages in Romania and
their chances to get involved in activities are reduced. 120 children will be selected to participate in the
training courses for children's rights activists of which 55% are girls, 30% Roma, 20% from gender
minorities, 10% physically/mentally disabled. The opportunities will be widely publicised and all children
in orphanages will have equal access. The theme of equal opportunities will also be addressed
theoretically with the beneficiaries in the sessions of the training course.

DESPRE MINE
Sunt un tânăr care îmi doresc să las ceva real, credibil în urma mea. Încrederea,
curajul și ambiția sunt doar câteva repere ce m-au convins să merg mai departe.
Oamenii cu perspective și o gândire rațională și deschisă m-au făcut să fiu
statornic în ceea ce fac. Motto-ul meu: Încredere, Demnitate, Implicare,
Seriozitate, Determinare, duc spre luminarea societății noastre.

THE SECOND
INSTALMENT
FOR THE
FLAT FOR
HOMELESS
YOUNG
PEOPLE
The Voice of Abandoned Children Association is an NGO
dedicated to children abandoned in residential homes
and has been operating since 2013. The foundations of
the association were laid by Vișinel Balan and his
brother Virgil Balan. Both of them grew up in foster
homes in Romania, experiencing at first hand the
hardships and suffering that do not go beyond the walls
of the D.G.A.S.P.C. (General Directorate of Social
Assistance and Child Protection).
Our results in 2020
The aim of the organization is to be at the side of young
people/children in state care, offering them support
both through educational activities and by the simple
fact that they have, among the members of the
association, people to whom they can open their hearts,
be listened to and loved.

Moreover, in 2020, we paid the second instalment for


the house for young people/street children. In January
2021 we paid the last instalment. We want to give
homeless young people the chance of housing. The
chance for an independent life.

We fought to reform the welfare system. #We succeeded


in proposing a number of changes to the Children's Act
and the Adoption Act (Laws at National level in
Romania). We strongly believe that every child deserves
a family. Institutionalisation is a serious form of
intervention for an abandoned child.
Thank you for your continuity.

7 YEARS OF

EDFORSO
CENTER

Within the EDFORSO - EDUCATION,


TRAINING, SOCIETY centre, we
conducted 5 workshops on
strengthening independent living skills.

The beneficiaries of these workshops


were 10 children from the St. Iosif centre
in District 1. Bucharest.

Among the workshops we mention:


1. Personal development:
Trainers: Vișinel Balan and Iulia Sorescu. 5 WORKSHOPS to strengthen
independent living skills.
2. Melotherapy:
Trainers: Jean Baptiste Manitou and Iulia
Sorescu.

2020 was a challenging year. The


pandemic put us in the situation to
reorganize, to direct our work towards
communities of hard-pressed children.

The rent of the EDFORSO centre was


provided by DRUMMERS CONCEPT and
the activities financially supported by
Eurocooling Center.

messages were extremely touching:

"They have locked us up in houses without

and who will pay the bills if we have been

Child Protection Policy


Vocea Copiilor Abandonati

Vocea Copiilor Abandonati is committed to creating and maintaining a caring and protective environment
that promotes its core values and that prevents and deals with child abuse and exploitation. We
vehemently condemn all forms of abuse and exploitation, whether they occur within or outside of our
organization and always respond to any substantiated case, allegation or attempt of abuse within our area
of influence, according to its typology. We strive to have mechanisms in place to raise awareness,
prevent, encourage reporting and facilitate response procedures in cases of abuse. These mechanisms
include human resource development actions such as training and counselling, through to measures such
as suspension, dismissal and legal action.
OUR POLICY IS BASED ON:
1. The origin, vision, mission and values of Vocea Copiilor Abandonati
2. United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC);
3. Child protection standards as defined by the Keeping Children Safe Coalition.

Every child can be at risk of abuse and exploitation. Some girls may be more vulnerable in this respect
because of different forms of discrimination and marginalisation related to their socio-economic status,
gender, disability, ethnicity, class or living conditions. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary that every
person in contact with Vocea Copiilor Abandonati understands child abuse and their own role and
responsibilities in child protection.
Any definition of child abuse requires a definition of the child. According to the UNCRC, a child is "any
human being below the age of 18 years unless national law recognises a lower age of majority."
The UNCRC provides an international framework that highlights the rights of children to protection from
abuse and neglect (Article 19), discrimination (Article 2) and various forms of exploitation (Articles 32--
36); special attention is given to children without parental care (Article 20), refugees (Article 22),
children at risk of drug use (Article 33), children deprived of their liberty (Articles 37 and 40), children in
situations of armed conflict.
VOCEA COPIILOR ABANDONAȚI

VCA
Site: www.voceacopiilor.ro

Often the abuser is someone close to the child and trusted by the child. Vocea Copiilor Abandonati
recognizes the importance of children's participation, empowering girls and boys to take a stand against
all forms of abuse, acting as agents with a role of self-defense and protection of their peers.
This policy aims to:
- Prevent child abuse and reduce the number of incidents (child--child, adult—child
- raise children's awareness of their rights and active role in child protection;
- inform children, employees, Board members, families and community members, volunteers and partners
(sponsors, donors, journalists, government authorities, etc.) about the child protection policy and related
procedures (awareness raising/awareness, prevention, reporting, response);
- encourage staff members directly involved in working with children to use their skills to contribute to
the development and protection of each child;
- ensure the necessary working conditions for staff to be able to contribute to the development and
protection of each child;
- Encourage open and frank discussions about child abuse -- in national meetings and workshops - across
all programmes and services -- between different partners;
- Establish fair, reliable and transparent reporting arrangements for all types of programmes that
guarantee the right of partners (children, and staff) to be heard;

Defining the four categories of abuse:


PHYSICAL ABUSE is actual or potential bodily harm caused by an action or lack of action that may be
taken by the parent or responsible person who has power or who is deemed to be trusted by the child.
Bodily harm involves hitting, beating, roughing, throwing, poisoning, burning or suffocating, drowning or
choking. It can also mean physically abusing a child, making up symptoms or intentionally inducing
harm. These incidents may be one-off or repeated.
SEXUAL ABUSE is evidenced by an activity between a child and an adult or another child who, by age
or developmental level, is in a relationship of responsibility, trust or power; the activity is intended to
fulfil and satisfy the needs of another person. Child sexual abuse involves forcing or manipulating a child
to participate in sexual activities, whether or not the child is aware of what is happening. These activities
may or may not involve physical contact and penetrative actions. This may also include engaging children
VOCEA COPIILOR ABANDONAȚI
Tel: 0743365469
Email: office@voceacopiilor.ro

VCA
Site: www.voceacopiilor.ro

in watching, producing pornographic material or encouraging children to behave in ways that are
inappropriate in terms of sexual expression.
NEGLIGENCE AND NEGLIGENT BEHAVIOUR is the intention or omission on the part of caregivers
to support children's development in terms of: educational, emotional, developmental, nutritional, shelter
and decent living conditions, in the context of resources available to the family or caregivers, and which
results in or has an increased likelihood of causing harm to the child's physical, mental, spiritual, moral
and social developmental health. This includes failure to properly supervise and protect children from
these incidents as much as possible.
EMOTIONAL ABUSE is the emotionally inappropriate treatment of a child that negatively affects the
child's self-perception and development. It can involve making the child feel that they are worthless,
unloved and inadequate or there to fulfil another person's needs, or the imposition of inappropriate
expectations. Acting out includes restricting freedom of movement, threatening, frightening,
discriminating, promoting the idea of "scapegoating", corrupting, ridiculing, degrading, harassing,
humiliating (e.g., asking possibly embarrassing questions, performing embarrassing actions) or other
forms of hostile or rejecting behavior without physical implications.

Specific considerations:
CHILD ABUSE
Allegations or concerns about abuse of one child by another child must be dealt with in a special way,
through thorough child protection procedures. All work with young people who have been abusive
requires an approach that ensures the protection of those affected and at the same time supports them in
changing their own behaviour. Any such approach requires:
- Recognition that a child who has abused another child differs significantly from adults who have
committed such offences, as the child is not fully aware of the abuse and the consequences;
- to bear in mind that the best interests of the child, both the victim and the abuser, are the primary
concern in all decisions.

VIOLATION OF CHILDREN'S PRIVACY


Protecting children's privacy refers to personal data about children, including photographs, texts, videos,
etc., which are produced for advertising purposes:
VOCEA COPIILOR ABANDONAȚI
Tel: 0743365469
Email: office@voceacopiilor.ro

VCA
Site: www.voceacopiilor.ro

Any information about the child's background, health and family of origin must be carefully stored within
the administrative department of Vocea Copiilor Abandonati. This information must be treated
confidentially and with discretion.
Vocea Copiilor Abandonati respects children's right to privacy. All staff members and external partners
involved in the dissemination of information about the child and in the creation and distribution of
publicity materials, act in accordance with the following guiding principles:
- When publicity materials are produced featuring a child, permission to do so shall be sought from both
the child and the child's legal guardian (or at least the consent of an adult carer);
- We do not actively ask children to do or say anything that makes them feel they are being portrayed as
"objects of pity" (e.g. talking about their past or asking for donations);
- Use children's names carefully, especially when sensitive information about them is involved (e.g.
family history, health, disabilities or negative behaviour);
- We are cautious about combining written and visual information whenever a text includes sensitive
information about the child or when a photo or video recording shows aspects of a child's life and reveals
their identity.

By following these guiding principles we ensure respect for children's privacy and at the same time
prevent and make others aware of the risks of violating this privacy. Based on these principles, staff
members who are directly involved in working with children have a right and an obligation to protect
children from any attempt to violate their privacy - whether intentional or not.

STAKEHOLDERS/PARTNERS
Child protection concerns everyone. It is an integral part of our work and concerns Vocea Copiilor
Abandonati members and everyone who comes into contact with our organisation. The specific approach
is defined by each national association, based on the Child Protection Policy at its disposal.
STAKEHOLDERS/PARTNERS
- Children (under 18 years old)
- Young adults (over 18 and participating in Vocea Copiilor Abandonati activities)

Vocea Copiilor Abandonati Actions


a. AWARENESS RAISING: Raising awareness/increasing awareness of child abuse and its risks.
Developing an open and responsive culture within all Vocea Copiilor Abandonati programmes and within
the communities in which we are actively involved is essential to safeguarding children. We, both as an
organization and as staff members, must have the courage to break the silence and break the taboo of
discussing child abuse. Through safe, clear and fair communication we give and receive positive and
critical feedback.
b. PREVENTION: Counselling in safeguarding children from abuse.
In order to prevent child abuse we need to create and maintain an environment that promotes the core
values of our organization within VOCEA COPIILOR ABANDONATI activities and projects.
A wide range of actions can support this: the main objective is to implement appropriate approaches to
recruitment and human resource development. At the same time, it is essential to listen carefully to
children, take their views seriously, encourage them to participate in discussions on child protection
issues and give them the chance to build relationships based on trust. Clearly, abuse is less likely to
happen in a context that encourages children's participation at all levels.

4. Child protection is a common theme in training programmes.


5. Through training and sharing experiences we learn the difference between appropriate and
inappropriate behaviour. Staff in charge care for young people and children treat them with affection, but
respect clear boundaries.
6. Children are given the opportunity to take on roles in their own development and protection. They
are encouraged to participate in all that affects their lives and are involved in discussions about their
rights. Children discuss what behaviour is acceptable and what is not and what they can do if they feel
something is wrong.
7. Each child is given individual opportunities for development, adapted to their needs and potential.
Staff are trained and supported to initiate activities necessary for the child's development.
8. All staff involved in the care of young people and children have access to family counselling when
deemed necessary.
9. Staff are encouraged to regularly share experiences within and across services and programmes on
how to approach child protection.
10. We are mindful of appropriate working conditions in all services and programmes of VOCEA
COPIILOR ABANDONATI at the same time, taking into account the cultural and legislative conditions
11. Support awareness and capacity building of parents, community and religious leaders on positive
discipline as an alternative to the use of corporal punishment.
12. Advocacy work of child protection systems within communities and societies is supported for
better prevention and for multiple opportunities to respond to child protection issues raised by girls and
boys.
c. REPORTING: Establish and adhere to a simplified reporting procedure.
We take all concerns seriously, whether it's one of the VOCEA COPIILOR ABANDONATI projects.
Rapid and transparent action is then taken, taking into account legislative responsibilities.
d. RESPONSE/REACTION: Ensure clear action is taken when child abuse is suspected or reported.
All forms of child abuse are treated seriously, without exception, in all Vocea Copiilor Abandonati
activities and responded to in accordance with the seriousness of the allegations. We ensure a response is
given regardless of the seriousness of the abuse. By providing a response we ensure that a transparent and
fair procedure is followed so that no one is wrongly convicted and the rights of all involved are protected.

In all cases where child abuse or neglect is suspected or proven, safeguarding and protecting the child is
central. At the same time, remedial measures are provided and the protection of all concerned is
guaranteed. Affected persons receive counselling and support.
In all cases of abuse an internal investigation is started by a neutral person. This person presents the
results of the investigation to the child protection team who decides on the next steps.
The response to allegations of child abuse focuses on what is best for the development and protection of
the children involved in such cases.
If abuse is committed by an adult, depending on the degree of abuse, legal steps are followed according to
the national reporting and response system, which defines the levels at which a response is provided in
each individual case. Where necessary, legal assistance is provided.
There is a clear hierarchy in which one person is responsible for the information management and
communication process, both internally and externally, on child abuse within the national association.
This person is supported by the child protection team.
Decisions are taken swiftly and action is taken quickly. Cases are reported to the child welfare authorities
according to a procedure defined by the national association.
Written records of all cases of abuse and their findings are kept within the service or programme.
