Roma positive: Roma role models and the image of Roma in media

November 5, 9:00 hr, American Centre, Trziste 3, Prague 1

How can Roma role models contribute to a successful integration of Roma into society? Who are Roma role models and which are the obstacles they encounter? What is the role of media in this? What is the image of Roma in media? In which context are Roma depicted in media?
These and other questions will be contemplated upon by multiple Roma and non-Roma experts and journalists from Middle Europe and Great Britain. Among them will be Zdeněk Horváth (Integration centre Prague, CZ), Jake Bowers (independent journalist, UK), Janja Rošer (chair of Slovenian Council of Roma Communities, SLO), Irena Bihári (lawyer, SK), Ciprian Necula (journalist, RO) etc.
Presented by Jarmila Balážová.
