Abstract:
This study tries to highlight the importance of the logical framework method for the planning process of the
projects and implicitly the role of the projects for the rural communities’ development. For the study and
analysis we selected Ghizela commune from the North – Eastern part of Timis county. The entire Romanian
rural space and the analyzed rural community faces infrastructural, demographic and mainly economical
problems, the agriculture is the main source of income for the members of this community. Thus, by this
study we would like to solve one of the problems this community is facing: the lack of incomes from
alternative activities, a project based on the natural, human, cultural and historical resources which can be
found in Ghizela commune. Also the proposed project is meant to encourage and to stimulate the local
initiatives, taking into consideration that the members of the community don’t have initiatives in starting
small rural businesses which could provide incomes from other activities. The allocated budget is small
because the project is based mainly on the involvement of the community members so that they can gain
confidence in their own forces.
The project is based on practicing tourism, especially agro-tourism, at a smaller level because the tourists are
children from the schools from Timisoara. In fact, by this project we try to attract children from schools to
the rural environment in order to know the rural life with all its aspects, during this period they will perform
both didactic and leisure activities. The local farms will be involved in the project; they will provide
accommodation and meal for the “small tourists”, offering natural fresh products produced in their own farm.
