A joint initiative of the OSI's Education Support Program in Budapest and Children and Youth Programs in New York, the Roma Education Initiative (REI) has made efforts to involve and collaborate with parents, communities, institutions, and governments as well as other OSI network programs such as the Roma Participation Program, the Network Women's Program, and the European Roma Rights Center.
REI has funded seven national-level projects in Bulgaria, Hungary, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovakia, and Slovenia. The initiative has provided support to other national efforts focused on Roma education in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, and Kosovo, through technical assistance or inclusion in international events.
REI's midterm report is available for download.
