Abstract

Despite many efforts and programs meant to improve the life and the access to education for children in need, the number of children living or working on the street is not decreasing. In order to rehabilitate and to reintegrate this category of children in society, we conducted studies in order to understand their needs and perceptions better. The tests we performed proved that the needs of a child who lives or lived on the street are totally different from those of other children and also there perception of the architectonical environment also. The aim of this article is to present the tests which were performed on four categories of children: children who were in an orphanage, children who are in a centre, street children and children form common families; and the results that prove the necessity of creating special learning and rehabilitation environments for children who live or lived on the street.
