	rroma.ro - Roma Research
		The "Dissemination of Rroma Research" project aims at creating a comprehensive image of the research carried out in Romania on the Rroma and disseminating the information obtained to all organisations interested in the subject: Rroma organisations, government ministries, central agencies, municipal and regional governments, donors, public at large.
		The socio-economical perspective is based on the assumption that Rroma people problems are related to the poverty and the difficulty to ensure decent living conditions.
		In this sense, the cultivation of the Rromani language and the preservation of the Rroma culture represent important aspects.

		But the Rroma have not deserved the attention of the western mass media, while they were also suffering the consequences of the war, without having anybody to defend them, neither politicians or soldiers.

		The few Rroma people who still live as travellers all over the european continent see how their movements are conditioned by the numerous legislations and ordinances that veto the right to camp in the public terrains.

		These problems are the heritage of the past, and have been aggravated by the difficulties of the transition period.
