2005 renovation of secondary school in Dilijan, Armenia in partnership with the community of Petange and MAEE. Cost: 100574,18€. This project, Wegas’ most important, has been co-financed by the Luxemburg Government and the Luxemburg Pétange Commune. Today most of the renovation has been successfully carried out. The School is about sixty years old. Around 700 children study in those three buildings, one built in 1957, the other two in 1974. For lack of a specific budget, only cosmetic improvements have been made over those years. The furniture was in a sorry state, as well as the sanitation and heating systems and the roof.
2009 Wega Armenia School: Martouni, Armenia. Renovation of the youth center or school? Planned: 4604,16€, spent: 5791, 48€. The borough of Martouni, 126 000 inhabitants, situated in the heart of the country in a rural mountainous region bordering Azerbaidjan, lives thanks to its subsistence farming. Before the end of Communism, on top of agriculture and industry, a regular flux of tourists would visit the region for its sanatoriums and the beneficial effects of its climate. A tourism economy existed. Conscious of the untapped potential of its population and region, many local NOGs have been working for years on giving the people the tools necessary to creating small and medium businesses. They give courses and qualifications modules to obtain linguistic, administrative and accounting skills. But these NOGs rarely have the means sufficient to maintain the buildings or materials. Wega, with the help of the Foreign Affairs Ministry, decided to help them collect funds to buy what they need in order to renovate the roof of the educational centre for youth. With our local partners, Anahit et Gor and Tigran, we have agreed to use only local or regional businesses. At the end of this spring, more young people will be able to follow courses in the best possible conditins, since the second floor will be usable.
2009 construction and A/V equipment of school establishment in San Isidro de Balabagan, Lanao del Sur, Philippines. Partnership with local government and school (parental?) community. Cost: 23165€. The school San Isidro in Balabagan, under the authority of the Catholic church, created in 1966, is amongst those. Since its beginnings, it has accepted pupils of all beliefs, refusing to proselytise, and nurturing the encounter with the other. In 2006, the school opened its first primary school classes, aware that any social transformation must start at the earliest possible age. San Isidro in Balabagan actively encourages parental involvement in its search for social peace, through the parents board. To strengthen and deepen its work, the school would like to add an audiovisual room and the corresponding material to its infrastructure. The staff knows how much a diversified education can make a difference. But the funds are hard to come across, and paying the salaries is already proving tough. That is why WEGA has agreed to help the school’s administration to come up with the financial means necessary to conduct this project in the interest of the local community. TO this end, we have already secured the support of the Foreign Affairs Ministry, and the guarantee that only local ressources will be used.
