Abstract

Through many studies and programs it has been discovered that a lack of self-worth is one of the main contributing factors to poor morale and work ethic in Romania. It has been found, that, for the majority of the country, poor expectations have led to poor performance in the workplace, hostile environments within communities and a mass migration to other countries within the European Union (Heintz 178). Under that same umbrella of lack of self-worth, there is also a special category of need found in Romanian children who have been placed in orphanages. While research has been done to recognize/identify the problem of low self-esteem in Romania, no real research is available concerning how to best re-build that self-esteem. This project was an exploration of the possible methods or techniques that could be used to help Romanian children build confidence, self-esteem and work together in groups.
