Strengthening Sinti and Roma in Germany

The funding program strengthens self-organizations and the educational participation of Roma and Sinti in Germany.
During the National Socialist era, Roma and Sinti were persecuted, and they are marginalized and discriminated against to this day. The EVZ Foundation and the Freudenberg Foundation support projects by and for Roma and Sinti in Germany and assert their rights - for equal educational and social participation.

A joint initiative of Freudenberg Foundation and EVZ Foundation
