The Rom-boost project aims at the social and financial empowerment of Roma populations in Greece through intensive education and skills development.

The activities of the Rom-boost project include intensive and targeted training of existing mediators and the wider community using the snowball approach. The training includes a common core and three different axes, Health, Protection and Advocacy of Rights and Communication and Culture. These axes will be accompanied by corresponding practical applications integrating the theoretical knowledge acquired during the training and translating it into practice in three modules:

• Participation in MdM vaccination campaigns, strengthening access to primary health care
• Organisation of open talks with the participation of public figures (politicians, local government representatives, etc.)
• Preparation for the job market and contact with potential employers
