Active participation of young Roma through documentary making
Ašun Me is a European project aimed at educating young Roma and young Roma adults through transformative learning using art. The project seeks to equip them with the knowledge and tools needed to participate in political life, monitor policy actions and implementation, engage with youth workers and policymakers, and express their suggestions for policy changes and adjustments. Additionally, it encourages them to share the ideas, problems, and needs of the Roma population at local, national, and regional levels while proposing solutions.
The project also aims to strengthen the tools, practical skills, and knowledge of youth workers in supporting young Roma adults, particularly in fostering their political participation.
