EU funding for multi-purpose Roma centres
As part of the project, the Curricular and Extracurricular Activities Centre will set up new multi-purpose Roma centres and carry out various activities in newly established as well as existing centres. The project also covers extracurricular activities, thus increasing the inclusion of Roma children in the preschool education system. The aim is also to ensure that these children achieve better results in primary school, as well as increase the percentage of children who successfully complete primary school and continue their education at the secondary school level.
