Pursuing this aim, we encourage and promote all those initiatives that, in terms of solidarity and on the cultural-educational field, allow the interchange of ideas among different cultures, favour the easing of economic imbalances and promote the creation of a true culture of universality and peace.
Our aim is to help youngsters develop their transversal competences (life skills) by using nonformal learning tools. We try to educate youngsters to a peaceful co-habitation with people coming from different cultures, countries and social conditions by giving them the opportunity to confront themselves with others in an intercultural environment which stimulates the development of a social conscience.
Our main activities are:
- educational activities (educational projects in schools and on an extra-curricular basis throughout a non-formal education method focused on active citizenship, European conscience, against racism and xenophobia, human rights principles);
- cultural events (conference, seminars, CineForm, concerts, art exhibitions);
- intercultural activities (programs and projects for youth mobility, education on international topics, promotion of different cultures in Romania and abroad, welcome activities of tourists and foreigners, promotion of Erasmus+ Programme);
- Territorial promotion (promotion of its typical aspects, its artists, tourism, sport activities)
- The mission of education activities consists of providing non-formal education opportunities for young people involving as many as possible, and trying always to widen our reach.

We have around 15 active youth workers and more than 40 volunteers working with us.
In our NGO there are many volunteers that have different experience in the field of non-formal education. They are keen to learn and share their experiences with others. Our volunteers are experienced in international projects being group/team leaders or/and facilitators. We are sending in projects one participant that is actively involved in our organization in order to disseminate results on behalf of our NGO. Our members are experienced in social communication using social networks and other tools of dissemination

Our budget resources are from projects and donations. In 2019 we have administrate more than 90 000 EUR for implementing projects.

We have organised more than 40 projects under Youth in Action, Erasmus+ and EEA Norway Grants.

Day by day one or more articles are posted on the website; most of them illustrate the cultural, scientific, and technological accomplishments of the two ethnic groups. The goal of each posted article is to help people realise that there are long lasting historical ties between the two nationalities, which yielded, over centuries, significant achievements. In addition, these articles are intended to alleviate the untrue and often chauvinistic statements in today's media.
Given that our team consists of professional journalists and former school teachers, we moderate every comment prior to being posted on our portal (some are very mean), and do our best to educate people, while urging them to open up their minds.
For the youth, we translate verses of popular Hungarian rock music to Romanian, which make them understand that differences between Hungarian and Romanian adolescents is not significantly different, after all.
For those, who admire sports, we write about joint Hungarian and Romanian successes. After every article, both Hungarian and Romanian authors open a debate about the information conveyed by a given material.
The portal takes position, when Romanian and Hungarian ultra-nationalist news are disseminated in the media. As a recent example, during the Romanian-Hungarian handball game, several Hungarians whistled rudely while the Romanian anthem was played. We took this seriously, and took position. We were the only Hungarians who did so.
Also, to the best of our knowledge, we have been the only ones to publicise and to promote in the Hungarian sphere the activity of the Romanian representatives from Harghita and Covasna counties.
This portal teaches about the importance of co-existance, without harming each other.
As far as we know, this is the only interethnic portal in Europe, which tries to educate people, extending help with these often difficult to handle issues. This helps people to figure out by themselves how to solve such problems, and helps them solving similar problems that may arise in the future.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We can publish articles, which can show the interethnic relations anywhere in the world, bringing to the foreground the positive examples of cohabitation. The publised articles on the portal reaches thousands of people, especially the romanian readers. We would assume promoting certain assossiations who are fighting for minority rights, because we can learn from it. We'd recruit those jurnalists, presenting them the most important questions in the Hungarian-Romaninan relationship,who are willing to write about civil work in romanian or even in english. We would also like to secure communication options for those young people.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

The main reason why we want to join the ALF Network is because we looking for ne relations, partnerships. We would like to evolve, also having the urge to see how others react and handle the interethnical problems, issues. We`d also like to help others, because the articles on the portal reacher a wide amount of importan people.

General Information
D.G.T. Association is a non-governmental organisation which officialy started it’s activity in March 2011. The base activity and the main reason why we started this is an idea that is a couple of years old. This idea was born from the will and passion to take attitude and change something, first of all, in the community of each of our members and afterwards at a national and european level. Also, at the base of D.G.T.’s coming to life, stays the wish of the founding members to give back all the beautiful things that they learned and experienced in the period of the previous years of volunteering. The name, „ D.G.T. „ represents the acronym from:  „Do Great Things” and the motto is: „Do Great Things and leave your mark...”. Our members are young, dynamic, ambitious and they come from different academical environments, such as, for example The Academy of Economic Studies – Bucharest (the largest economics university from the South-East Europe), Polytechnic University – Bucharest, Bucharest University, Technical University – Cluj Napoca, National School of Political and Administrative Studies – Bucharest. D.G.T. works, for now, as a one united block, in the way that all the members contribute at the realization of the project in the making. In the future, once we will increase our number of members and projects, we are planning to create coordinated departments, each of them having their own projects: Human Resources, Communication, International Relations, Local Projects. Among our local activities we can enumerate intercultural workshops, various social events, round-tables and conferences.
Mission and Objectives

The mission of D.G.T. Association is centered on the creation and setting-up of a national and international network of youngsters, students, trainers and teachers of various nationalities and backgrounds.
This network tackles topics like getting to know other cultures and cultural exchange, non-formal education, ecology and climate change, sustainable development, european citizenship and, not the least, geopolitics.
Among all of these we add facilitation of the youngsters to accumulate, through voluntary activities, the necessary experience to efficiently adapt to the labour market, and also by offering the possibility to students to practice the theory learned in university.

Main Projects / Activities

We have a vast experience regarding international projects like Youth in Action Programme, Action 1.1. Youth Exchange, Action 3.1.a, Action 3.1.b and Action 4.3., and we are also involved in local projects.
