Japan has provided about US$90,000 for implementing a project to improve the conditions of study at the music school “Maria Cibotari” in the municipality of Cahul. The money was allocated to preform repair works on the school’s building – to replace the roof, to thermally insulate the walls, to rehabilitate the centralized heating system. The project was financed through the Grant Assistance for Human Security Projects of the Grassroots Program “Kusanone”, IPN reports.
According to Japan’s Embassy in Moldova, the project comes to ensure decent learning and teaching conditions for students and teachers. The costs for heat will be optimized.
