Identifying Solutions to Promote the Education of Children in Roma Communities

Summary/Abstract: The issue of Roma education is widely addressed in the recent sociological literature. Many studies seek to identify the best solutions for increasing the access to education for Roma children. In this article I present the results of a study conducted in Brasov County, Romania, based on the collection of qualitative data (interviews and focus group) in ten local communities with a significant number of Roma population. The identified solutions are of two types: those that are already applied and give positive results and those which, in our respondents' opinion, could represent effective measures of social policies at local and national level.
