Project Details
Description
Roma at work, within and beyond NGO-isation
Europe’s Roma population has historically faced economic, social and cultural marginalisation. Throughout Europe, their education level is generally low. While a big share of the Roma population complete primary school, few go on to complete vocational and secondary level education. School dropout rates among Roma pupils remains very high. The EU-funded NGOST project will investigate NGO-isation – the impact of civil society organisations on Roma education levels. Case studies highlighting Roma youth’s transition from school to work will be conducted in Hungary, Slovakia and Spain. The results will fill ideological/policy and structural/institutional knowledge gaps concerning the neoliberal governance of the Roma population.
