Summary/Abstract: In Romania, almost 225.000 children go to sleep hungry and 72% of the families of the rural area cannot ensure their under five years old children a minimum diet. World Vision Romania provides an integrated model that prevents poverty and reduces school drop-out rate, through a mix of projects of economical development, education, parent’s school. The economical development and food security projects support families to develop small bussiness and build on a competitive and strong local economy that will improve the living conditions of children and their families. All projects include training and good practice models, bussiness and marketing courses, technical assistance, experience exchanges. The vulnerable children participate in special activities preventing school drop-out rate and parents of vulnerable children participate in parental education sessions. All projects are supported by the local community through the involvement of the Consultative Community Commission.
