VOICED: Roma children face school discrimination in Eastern Europe

The video discusses the marginalization of children in Eastern Europe, focusing on Roma children who face significant educational barriers. Despite efforts by NGOs to combat discrimination, many Roma children remain disadvantaged. In Romania, a stark contrast exists between the education levels of Roma and non-Roma populations. In Hungary, although segregation is illegal, deep-rooted prejudice persists, affecting educational outcomes. The video highlights the societal burden of poorly educated children and emphasizes the need for change to provide Roma children with better opportunities than their parents had.

Discuss the impact of societal prejudice on the education of Roma children.

What are the long-term implications of poor education for Roma children and society as a whole?
