This Program is open for non-profit Romanian organizations and institutions, with activity and experience in the field of education and civic engagement, and with no political affiliations, to apply for a grant of up to $90,000 to develop a curriculum on the history of communism.

The overall goals of the program are to educate young people about the history of communism and its impact on various spheres of life in Romania, public and private; to help students develop their critical thinking skills and relate to history in a meaningful way; to deepen students’ insight into how non-democratic regimes may use democratic institutions in order to establish and maintain themselves; and to encourage students to develop informed opinions and act as responsible citizens to support democratic practices within society.
