As Roma children are among the most vulnerable in Moldova, exposed to long term exclusion and bearing the weight of discrimination against their parents, we focus our work on ensuring respect for the right to equality and non-discrimination of this ethnic minority.

About half of all children in Romania face the risk of poverty and social exclusion. They live in deplorable housing conditions, are left behind by parents who migrate, drop out of school, experience violence or health problems. Terre des hommes helps vulnerable groups in Romania, such as Roma, to tackle this situation by creating small enterprises in regions where little employment opportunities are available.

Terre des hommes Romania together with its partners from Austria, Spain, Italy, and Bulgaria addressed this need through the 2-year project “Reinforcing cOmpetences to Build Inclusion through a New learning methodology (ROBIN)”. 

The handbook “Migration and Integration into Formal Education” addresses the issue of poor educational attainment of the children and youth affected by migration. Because of their travel status, they are often either school drop-outs or experience disrupted periods of school attendance, being most likely to be included into Second chance type educational programmes.

Tdh Romania and its partners will create in Romania models of economic development by supporting 28 entrepreneurs from Roma and other vulnerable groups by means of trainings, consultancy, facilitation, mentoring and grants.
