The Ministry of Human Resources is targeting the Roma with its recently published tender, which provides support for the realization of Roma cultural events and the production of other cultural content and products. The domestically funded project helps to set up cultural forums aiming at the preservation of Roma culture, traditions and language.
Through the promotion of Roma cultural values, the project improves the social status of the largest domestic ethnic group. Its aim is to foster understanding and tolerance towards Roma using cultural and artistic means. The presentation of Roma cultural values may reduce prejudices and could strengthen the mutual recognition of different cultures. Furthermore, the project also makes it possible for the Roma to become better acquainted with their cultural heritage and helps them transfer these values to younger generations within their own communities.
