Special thanks to Anina Ciuciu! The ‘Voices of Resistance’ online campaign invites every young Roma to testify their own resistance stories! Through this online campaign, we want to empower young Roma people to share their good examples of staying active in such difficult times of crisis as well. Stay tuned, watch our videos and be part of our online resistance!
The Voices of Resistance campaign is part of the Roma Youth Voices Project, coordinated by Phiren Amenca and funded by the Rights, Equality and Citizenship Programme of the DG Justice, European Commission.
