Implementation of Intercultural Education Based on Social Integration of Roma (Romani) Population in Romani

Summary/Abstract: The main objective of this research article is to investigate the implementation of intercultural education based on social integration of Roma (Romani) population in Romania. Romania has one of the largest Roma (Romani) populations in Europe but the exact number of indigenous Romani population cannot be accurately estimated. In essence, an arrogant approach defines in trivial mode the Romani population as nomadic people or nomads or just Gypsies but they are considered uncivilized and rather impossible to civilize even if it is one of the largest minorities in Romania. However, the very condition Romani people living in Romania implies a social stigma despite government programs preventing growing discrimination, racism and xenophobia. Roma (Romani) minority have free access to education in Romania in order to improve social integration and to prevent and reduce school dropout among Roma children.
