About this project

<p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: &quot;Calibri&quot;, sans-serif">The main subject of the project is the reconstruction of the former Jewish school, which is part of the cultural monument - the synagogue Levice. It is currently unused and in poor technical condition and unfortunately the existing constructions no longer fulfill their original purpose. The roof is leaking and could damage the whole wooden bridge system. In a state of disrepair, the external plasters with huge cracks that endanger the statics. During the implementation of the project, demolition work, excavation work, construction work and remediation works will be done, resulting in the reconstruction of the former school building. Afterwards the reconstructed Jewish school should serve as a space for education, cultural activities, as a center of creativity of the city and the region, along with a permanent exhibition on the lives of citizens of Jewish nationality in the&nbsp;town and region. Many various events will take place with the help of the project partners. </span></span></p>

Bilateral cooperation results

The project benefited mainly from the sharing of know-how and best practice from the donor project partner. With its experience, the donor project partner provided the promoter with new perspectives on the project's activities. As part of the project, the promoter cooperated and communicated with the partner during the entire project implementation period, and at the same time, the Norwegian partner visited the project in Slovakia several times. The cooperation continues and we are preparing other joint projects. As it was mentioned above, the promoter continues to fulfill the cooperation. Other projects include other planned workshops for the applicant's employees regarding effective communication, promotion and the design of promotional manuals.The networking with other potential Norwegian partners is also planned with the help of donor project partner.
