On
the occasion of International Human Rights Day, many educational events were
held. Two school competitions have been announced for the students of Georgian
general education institutions within the framework of the Ministry's
Subproject Support Program:
1.
Comics Contest on Healthy Lifestyle;
2.
A poster contest called No to Bullying;
As
part of the comic book competition, students created comics on the topic of a
healthy lifestyle. The competition will promote a healthy lifestyle among
students, in particular: promoting healthy eating and physical activity, as
well as condemning harmful habits (tobacco, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
As
part of the poster competition, the students created posters on the topic of
bullying prevention. The purpose of the competition was for teens to express
their attitude towards all forms of bullying, including physical, verbal,
psychological, cyber and other types.
In
December, a Summary Conference is planned to introduce the results of 18 projects
funded under the Second Opportunity for Education in Social Inclusion program
and to hear presentations on the identity, history and culture of Roma and
Meskhetians residing in Georgia. The activities promote, on one hand, the
access to quality education for Roma and Meskhetian adolescents and the
improvement of their state language skills, and on the other hand, the
development of tolerant attitudes and self-awareness among the sub-program
volunteers and members of the public.
