activity in Sumgayit town after occupation of Gubadly region in 1993, the
construction of primary classrooms has begun in the school since June’
2006.

actors and community members helped much during the construction of the
classrooms.

facilities (whiteboards, table, chairs, cases) and school-kits.

presented to 55 school children who entered the 1st grade in 2006.
15 800 AZN were spent for construction of and designing the school and
supply of it with education facilities. 4808 AZN (3368 AZN in cash, 1440
AZN by labour) out of this amount were contributed by the community.
Beside Khalaj school there were undertaken repair-construction works in 9
classrooms and 3 community rooms in Gubadly region Aligulushagy, Ishigly
rural schools and Jabrail region secondary school #6
In the above-mentioned schools 3 TPAs were created and skills of the TPAs
developed. They were involved in the process of repair and construction of
the school active in communities. The goal was to involve the community
members through TPAs in active participation during addressing the
problems existing in the location, to ensure the creation and development
of a Community Fund, and to assist in establishment of intra-communities
relations and relations with donor organizations.
