Street Action
Maternal Health

Goal nº 5










Our street action about maternal health was very simple, but very direct.
We make it in Universitat, in the streets and close of the metro station.
Each girl had a baloon in her belly, and someone came and just make it explode, and our head just follow.Someone speaks in Romanian to explain some numbers.It represents the mothers that died, when they give birth.
It represents the MDG'S goal nr.5.
With this street action, we pretend remember people, of some numbers, about this goal.

Wait for the next street Action.

Special School nr.5 .... a special place for us







During 1 month and half our Team Worked in Special School nr. 5 with this wonderful Kids... Our work was to let our kids know about MDG'S, in a funny way, specially about the goal nº 7, Ensure environmental sustainability. In the beginning we started to construct a relation with them, presenting ourselves, and our countries, and differences of culture, but common things too. We chose many ways to teach them, showing maps of Europe, of each country where we came from, and in this way we learned about Romania too. As a method of expression, we used many methods of non formal education, because it is a good way, special with kids. Some games, inside or outside of the class, to put them the conscience of being in a team, were everybody helps. We showed them short films about MDG's, we organised a Treasure Hunt with MDGs for them, we made clothes with garbage, plastic, bags, bottles, for a competition between schools, were they won the first place. In this way they learned that, even the garbage is useful and it can be a wonderful material to work in school and showing them that all of us, are responsible to help, with very simple and small things. To finish our project there, we asked them to make some drawings about MDG'S, and to see what they understood about our work. And this is the result of our work. Our hope now is that they grow up, taking care of this planet, taking care about the others and themselves too.






Photos about MDGs ... a challenge







In the same time with the workshops we did in School nr. 5 we had a workshop made by one of the EVS volunteers, Lorca about the photographic techniques and how to do photos. After the workshop we started brainstorming ideas about how we can express in photos the Millennium Development Goals. The results is here in the Photo Exhibition.



We hope you enjoy the exhibitions!

Roman, Moldava






















This weekend, globe in the mirror team, was in the countryside, to visit the gradmother of Andreea.
Afther 5 hours by train we arrived in Roman.The brother of Andreea was waiting for us.
It was a moment to rest, and to feel the deep Romania, the way that people live, the way they eat, they dance, they fight for life.
We learned, how to make, placinta, and many other things.
A wonderful family, that gave to us the better they had,a very warm happiness.

Thanks a lot Andreea!

Tusvanios Festival












Globe in the mirror, was in Tusvanyos, after the Mid-term training in Predeal.

Tusvanyos, is an Hungarian festival, that happens since 21 years till now in Tusnad.
Good music, camping places everywhere, and hungarian food.
We were surrounded by green mountains, and happy faces, with some rain during the days.
We made a street action there, the shadows, and everybody smiled when we interact with childrens, young people and old people.
And important is the message that we passed.

In our free time,we were in the lake St. Ana, one part of the group by foot, during 6h to come and back, and the others by car, with the president of the council of Cluj...yes we met him, what a adventure!
The lake is wonderful and amazing place to swim, and enjoy the silence.
Of course afher these days, we know more about Hungarian traditions, music, and beautiful places, inside of Hungarian parts of Romania.
