The institutional support is a continued urge for affirmative and inclusive policies about Roma in four priority areas of the Decade through representation and direct participation.

Our task is to be a Roma voice in the institutions on a national and international level and to promote equal participation of Roma in the society.

National Roma Centrum continues its work with the communities in 15 cities. We have been working on encouraging of Roma in realization of their rights according to law. This contributed for us to receive a clear and real image about the active participation of Roma children in primary education in 15 cities, where we had been working in the pre enrollment period, the start of the school year and attendance of pupils.

Our direct beneficiaries are Roma, but in order to create a positive atmosphere we provided assistances and for non Roma citizens. About 50 citizens turn to the office for legal assistance on daily basis. NRC assists in providing personal documentation, approach to health institutions, etc.

NRC from the beginning of the Roma Decade has been working on activities which are directly related to the Decade. NRC’s activities that refer to advocacy, free legal assistance, health, education, personal documentation are part of the process of the Decade.
