COUNTRY: Austria
PROJECT TITLE: Learning together – Roma in Europe
Project description
This project will contribute to the enhanced cooperation of European culture of the Roma associations. The focus is
on adult education. The mutual visits will take a close look at the existing educational situation of Roma in Austria,
Romania, Sweden, France, Spain, Bulgaria and Germany. The plan is to write a report on the educational and
training situation in the countries involved.Preparing the project meetings we will jointly establish a questionnaire
and publish the results on an Internet weblog.The focus of the project coordinator, VHS polycollege, is the planning
of a special educational program together with the ethnic group of Roma in Vienna and for the Roma of Vienna:
language courses, cooking classes, crafts, IT etc. This educational offer will lead to a better understanding of the
concerns of the Roma in the Viennese population, and thus help to reduce the prejudices against the Roma. The
range of language courses in Romany is the first step to a better understanding of the concerns and needs of
Roma. The Learning Partnership will examine the educational situation of Roma in the respective partner countries
and will identify best-practice models to be specially documented. The knowledge of the situation in the host
countries will lead to fruitful ideas for their own work and activities.
