Empowering Rural Education: transforming Schools in Romania
In partnership with the Bookland Association, Xella has embarked on a journey of transformation aimed at reshaping the educational landscape in rural Romania. Our mission is clear: to combat school drop-outs in remote areas by providing pupils with access to high-quality education in a safe, modern, and stimulating environment, thereby fostering sustainable communities for the future.
Rural children face unique challenges that often go unnoticed. These students understand the weight of responsibility from a young age, experiencing hardships that city-dwelling counterparts may never encounter. For them, school represents more than just a place of learning.
