Purpose of funding request and how this activity relates to civic engagement of the marginalized and vulnerable groups to be represented in the development processes. The aim of the application for funding for this project is to sensitize all levels of government towards better development policies through the involvement of the Rome community in their integration. We think that the awareness of the reality of this community will facilitate their efforts for integration with equal rights with other communities. Also, this project will help in the implementation of the Rome strategy in the framework of the Rome Decade. We are conscious that the successful integration of the Rome is a long road with two directions, the ability of the Roma to adopt with a life with changes and ability of the other communities to accept the Roma with their cultures and traditions. 9.

3 Purpose of the Grant 16. Describe briefly the need or issue you will address. Include a description of the constituency served (including number participating) and how they will participate/benefit? The Roma Minority lives together with the Gypsy community at the Skenderberg neighbourhood (or Ilyria neighbourhood as was known during the communist regime). This community according to unofficial figures is made of about 200 families in the Lezha district. The Roma families live in rented accommodation or in buildings with terrible living conditions. The main problems for this community that prevent their integration in society and the lack of equal rights with other communities are: Street Children Due to education not being part of the Roma culture, there are no traditions of and for 100 years the Rome children have not received proper education and as a result illiteracy is very high. The fact that we can see problems with education is not surprising; the parents themselves did not go to school and are unable to support their children through school. There are no real statistics about the Roma children on the Streets. High unemployment Closely linked to the problem of education is that of high unemployment. As the number of street children is high, it is difficult to find employments that require qualifications. The Roma people traditionally have been traders and have lived by buying and selling, as a result they are not used to working for someone else, something that causes problems in finding employment. Lack of accommodation The Roma people traditionally have lived in tents and in absolute freedom. They took all their belongings with them and didn t depend on anyone. This situation changed drastically when they decided to live in houses, where they had to pay rent and bills. After many years of independence this new way of life has led to many getting into debt, getting health problems (psychological and physical). All these have lead to excessive drinking and smoking which means the intervention of psychiatrists is a must for this target Group. Health Problems The lack of information and the inadequate level of coverage by the local media have led to this community being affected a lot by sexually transmitted diseases such as AIDS-HIV and Hepatitis.
