Roma Participation Program

The Roma Participation Program (RPP) is a grants program that supports Roma activism in Central and Eastern Europe to take charge of their lives, to participate in decisions that affect them, and to advocate for their rights as equal citizens of their own countries.

RPP provides institutional support and training to grass-roots Romani NGOs engaged in community-issues advocacy. In addition, RPP supports broad-based campaigns aimed at systemic policy reform at the national level through funding projects by Romani NGOs that have the requisite professionalism to operate on the national and international levels. The desegregation of schools is the current primary example of this type of funding.
