Automatically translated summary. The full article is available in Romanian.

The Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup” has announced a competition to select 20 schools teaching in Romanian or Russian as beneficiaries and partners for the fourth year of the “My School” initiative, which promotes social accountability in Moldova’s education reform. Applications were due by 6 February 2017.

Interested schools had to submit an expression of interest and a short form, signed and stamped, by e-mail, in person, by fax or by post to Expert-Grup in Chișinău, addressed to Iulia Sîrghi-Zolotco. The deadline was 6 February 2017 at 10:00, and registration for the competition has now closed.

Over three years, the project involved about 40,000 people from 21 districts and municipalities in discussions on school budgets. Sixty beneficiary schools learned and applied social accountability tools, giving pupils and parents opportunities to help improve their schools. The initiative is implemented with support from the World Bank’s Global Partnership for Social Accountability and informational support from the Ministry of Education.
