Initially, the lavender cultures were found in the Mediterranean basin, in the limestone and rocky areas (Europe and North Africa), as well as in Western India (Essential oil crops. Production guidelines for lavender, Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, 2009). Nowadays, with an increasing spread along Europe, lavender is cultivated on almost every continent and can be found also in North America, South America, South Africa, Asia or Australia. According to INTELIAGRO (Grebenicharski Stiliyan, Lavender Production in Bulgaria, 2016), Europe remains a main market, with Bulgaria and France holding 2/3 of the EU's lavender exports. The EU member countries, such as France and Germany, are also among the main importers of lavender, as well as the US and Swiss markets.

Each major pedagogical orientation brings with it a set of certain potential actions, a potential that becomes reality at the level of invariably at the level of educational reality. Assuming a certain pedagogical educational paradigm is thus equivalent to the transposition into practice of a certain type of experimental research and promoting a particular way of conceiving and modeling of human nature. In a world characterized by contradicting realities, by turmoil, fast developing technologies, discussing and deciding on the most appropriate educational paradigms should be a core process in the attempt of conceiving the educational vision and objectives of tomorrow. The present paper aims at discussing the role of educational paradigms within the framework of contemporary educational strategies.

In rural Romania the main activity is agriculture, so much of the rural population is occupied in agriculture and earns income from this activity [35]. Due to small areas of agricultural land, lack of agricultural machinery and access to credit, many farms are subsistence. In the new 2014-2020 period, for job creation and for increasing the incomes of the rural population, it is necessary to diversify the activities and promote small-scale businesses [40].

The present research paper aims to evaluate the level of expansion and the impact of actions undertaken at European level to combat fraud against the European Union’s financial interests, a phenomenon that has been growing in the recent years, especially as a result of the latest financial crisis. In this respect, the paper analyses the results of the activities carried out between 2008 and 2015 by two competent institutions – one at the European Union’s level, the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) and the other one at a Member State’s level, the Romania’s Anti-Fraud Department (DLAF) (as Romania is a full member of the European Union since 2007) – to detect, investigate and penalize fraudulent actions affecting European Union’s financial interests. More specifically, on the one hand, to assess the level of expansion of the EU’s actions to combat fraud, the research paper presents how evolved the numeric variation of new open investigations and those concluded by these institutions during the given period, and, on the other hand, to appreciate the impact of these actions, the indictment rate of the decisions taken by national authorities following OLAF’s recommendations is determined and the financial recoveries/implications are identified.

Using BSC method as a tool to obtain an image of the reality of the health system in Romania as well as the source for the formulation of future strategies. The implementation of medical ethical principles through a management of medical ethics will presuppose first, an adaptation of health system to patients’ needs, respect for patients’ rights, which come from the directive concerning cross-border medical assistance. To conclude ethical principles in health care must be promoted since only due to these principles people will benefit from patient-centred care, will be provided respectful and responsive health care and above all will actually benefit from their right to health care.

The food industry is becoming more customer-oriented and needs faster response times to deal with food scandals and incidents. Good traceability systems help to minimize the production and distribution of unsafe or poor quality products, thereby minimizing the potential for bad publicity, liability, and recalls. The current food labelling systems cannot guarantee that the food is authentic, good quality and safe. Therefore, traceability is applied as a tool to assist in the assurance of food safety and quality as well as to achieve consumer confidence. This paper presents comprehensive information about traceability systems and the evolution concerning the actors involved and the information about safety and quality in the food supply chain administrated within the systems. Some inventive factors, which influence the traceability systems adoption, are underlined.

Any free market economy is facing the problem of higher or lower unemployment rates. At a national level, it is important to increase employment opportunities, reduce poverty and promote full participation in society and the economy, and encourage elderly people to remain active on the labor market longer. In addition, financial sustainability is vital to guaranteeing rights and encouraging participation in society and the labor market. Social benefits systems should be centered on ensuring income security in transition periods and on poverty reduction, especially for groups at the highest risk of social exclusion.
