We facilitated a public forum on the transformation of the Mátra Power Plant

The Mátra Power Plant will phase out lignite by 2025 and will use environmentally friendly, carbon-emission-free technology. This is good news for the environment, but why are we writing about it?

Supporting vulnerable groups during a coronavirus

In the current epidemic situation, one thing was immediately clear: the disadvantages of a viral emergency were magnified and the isolation of the transition to online life was only increased. When we had to suspend our personal presence in the municipalities where we were working with disadvantaged groups because of the coronavirus, we immediately asked ourselves: how were we going to reach the Roma communities we had been [...]

The Chobana library is becoming more successful

Winter is definitely over now. At least everyone said goodbye to it at the carnival in the Chobana Playhouse. The afternoon had several highlights, one of which was certainly the burning of the kebab, which even brought the wind down. The kebab had taken human form the night before in the hands of Katica Mohácsi, and ended up on the bonfire that Peter had wonderfully loaded... In true community bonding [...]

As a mediator in Nyírbátor, I have a difficult task, because there is a huge community and a huge number of school administrators to work with. But since the introduction of the Community Counts programme in the school, it has become easier and smoother [...]

Parents in school method - experiences

Family visits are an important element of cooperation, but they can only take place if the family is invited by the teacher in the kindergarten or school. In some cases it is easier to start teacher-parent cooperation, in others it is more difficult, for example when the family lives in a disadvantaged environment. In these cases, the reason why the cooperation between parent and teacher does not work is not [...]

"Attuned to life" summer day camp for 8-12 year olds

What do children need for a lighter, happier everyday life? First and foremost, the love, care and attention you give them as parents. The school, where children spend most of their day, is mostly concerned with their language, maths and logic development, while we already know how much else they need to thrive: social and emotional [...]
