Georgia | Momavlis Taoba - Civic Education Program | 23 Sep 2015

Ali Village Public School civics students initiated the renovation of civics club room and school yard.  They have mobilized the peer students, teachers, parents and community members to take active part in the renovation processes, as well as school yard greening and cleaning actions. Local entrepreneur Mr. Ivane Nizadze supported the project and provided the materials for the renovation of the school yard. This action was implemented as part of the project -“Remember, you are an active citizen!” 

During the project implementation number of activities took place, in parallel to the renovation work. Students conducted a research and interviewed 76 students to find how they spend their free time. Based on the results of the research, students planed future activities for peer students. They organized meetings with successful school graduates to share their experience. They conducted the workshop for school students on the topics “Democracy” and “State and Civil Society”. The workshop was facilitated by Ali school graduate, professor of Tbilisi State University Mr. Akaki Kulijanashvili. 

Presentation of the results of the project was held on September 10, 2015. After the presentation guests visited the civics club room and the renovated school yard. Active supporters of the project were awarded with certificates of appreciation.

This initiative was supported by the mini-grant in the framework of USAID-funded Momavlis Taoba Program, implemented by PH International.
