ROMA TALENT PROGRAM<br />
Launched in 2018, the Roma Talent Program helps secondary and university students of Roma descent<br />
in their career path, entrance exams, and obtaining degrees.<br />
Students enrolled in this free-of-charge program attend local language courses, and can participate in<br />
monthly activities at <strong>MCC</strong>’s Budapest headquarters. Additionally, high-school students are offered<br />
personal mentoring by experienced mentors.<br />
The program emphasizes the importance of personal mentoring in building a strong community<br />
where Roma students can support each other in their future careers.<br />
We organize summer camps for our students and, to facilitate their studies, we also provide them with<br />
computers, which they will own after the successful completion of the program’s first year.<br />
We believe that supportive attitudes, community experiences, and skills development help reduce social<br />
inequalities. Interested students can join the Roma Talent Program in the first semester of the 9th<br />
grade.<br />
Thereafter, they take part in a variety of educational activities up to graduation which are designed to<br />
help them pass their final exams and gain admission to a university.<br />
The Roma Talent Program also serves high school graduates currently studying in higher education.<br />
The program thus supports talented Roma youth throughout their educational journey.<br />
