WE ARE INVOLVED IN COMENIUS REGIO, OPENED BY

CONSILIUL JUDETEAN DOLJ Dolj County Council is a local public administration institution organized on the basis of the Local Public Administration Law no. 215/2001 republished.The Dolj County lies on a surface of 7414 square km, respectively 3,1% of the Romanian territory, being the country's 7th county in size. The Danube crosses the southern part of the county on a length of 150 km, also representing the Bulgarian border. Dolj is one of the counties with an ancient tradition in the Old Romanian Country, whose existence - as shown by the name - was linked to a river - the Jiu - to its valley - a real geographical axis on which there is the residence and towards which converge all the inner connections. In this institution there is a special department for management of community programs and issues of European integration, which organizes many activities that develop continuously in order to better the knowledge and understanding of the European Union by the citizens, including the students, by bringing information closer to them. For this purpose, since 2005, our institution had created a network of European information multipliers consisting of one representative from each school in our subordination. With their help, various activities are continuously developed, focused on the improvement of the level of awareness about EU policies and how they intervene in the daily life of citizens.
