Quality Education - SDG 4
Access to quality education is essential for the proper functioning of a sustainable society. Generally, education is mistakenly considered only a process that precedes entering the labor market. Education should be treated as a lifelong process, regardless of age. To this end, innovation and meritocracy, as well as conduct and empowerment, can be encouraged. To move towards this goal, school dropout rates must be reduced, and the educational system needs improvement, regardless of geographic location and field of study or background.
Sustainable development essentially means ensuring good conditions on this planet for future generations. Therefore, from the perspective of the 2030 Agenda, education is a fundamental theme.

Fundatia Leul Albastru
Because good things must come at the right time, we act early to create a foundation for disadvantaged children to escape the captivity of their environment, to save their future, aspirations, and development, so that they become responsible adults, prepared for life, capable of contributing to socio-economic life. We are aware that a child's development depends on multiple factors, which is why we have adopted a holistic approach to create a favorable context for the development of children and young people in their living environment, covering both their needs for formal and non-formal education and the needs of their families, such as facilitating the receipt of educational, social, medical, etc., assistance for children in risky situations.

Super
Super! is an art festival made by teenagers, full of short films, workshops, and more workshops. Super started in 2013, from the desire of some teenagers to have a supportive space where they could screen their films and meet their peers with similar passions. Then, over the years, Super grew into one of the most important non-formal education platforms in the country, with all these teenagers constantly encouraged to discover and deepen their artistic practices and their big questions and answers about the surrounding world. Super's activity especially complements the Romanian education system, which too rarely focuses its attention on the specific context in which students are formed, keeping the teacher-student interaction within the parameters of an outdated curriculum and a rigid, formal language that hinders and tenses understanding, instead of supporting it.
