Roma Youth Project ‘Those young people, who made use of a chance yesterday, are today able to give a chance to others.’
The Roma Youth Project is working to enable young people from a Central and Eastern European Roma background across the West of Scotland to have an equal chance to live, learn and eventually work in an environment free from isolation, prejudice, poverty, racial discrimination and harassment. The project works to: · Promote a positive sense of identity amongst Roma young people · Facilitate integration activities between Roma young people and local communities · Empower Roma young people to have access to and maintain contact with beneficial services · Provide advice and information to young people · Carry out outreach activities · Work together with partner organisations · Breakdown misconceptions and prejudices about the Roma culture · Involve Roma young people in designing and shaping the project activities For more information contact Katarina Simonovicova at WSREC on 0141 337 6626 or send an email on This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it Supported by:
