Chisinau, 4 November /MOLDPRES/ - Prime Minister Natalia Gavrilita today visited the Alecu Russo State University from Balti and inspected the carrying out of the works for the completion of the Centre for Innovation and Technological Transfer from the North Development Region. The construction is finished at the level of 90 per cent, the government’s communication and protocol department has reported.     

The project, initiated in July 2020, is implemented by the Regional Development Agency and is financed from sources of the National Regional Development Fund (FNDR). The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Sweden and UK AID are strategic partners; they will contribute, through the Moldova Competitiveness Project, to the endowment of the centre’s renovated rooms with furniture and equipment. In all, the project’s estimated value is about 40 million lei, of which 28.50 million lei is from FNDR sources. The Alecu Russo State University from Balti made available the unfinished building erected from its sources and allocated two million lei for non-planned works, but which are necessary to be carried out.  

Natalia Gavrilita held discussions also with the rector and the deans of the faculties from the Balti University. The PM welcomed the investments made in the Centre for Innovation and Technological Transfer and voiced confidence that the number of students and young people remaining to work in Moldova would increase in this way.    

„It is quite important that we orient the education for enhancing useful competences for young people. Moreover, young people must be confident that they will be able to get employed at well-paid jobs after graduation. In this respect, such partnerships between education institutions and economic agents as the one from Balti are very important,’’ Natalia Gavrilita stressed.   

As many as 230 teachers work at the Alecu Russo State University from Balti and over 4,000 students and pupils presently study at this university, as well as at the Ion Creanga Pedagogical College.
