Roma Children's Club in PLATO

Regular creative and educational workshops for children from excluded localities in cooperation with the TV Páteř art collective supported by the Moravian-Silesian Region.

Partner:
TV Páteř

 

The project consists of activities that strengthen skills in art, drama and film education, but also social skills in a broader context. One of the aims is to stimulate the interest of children from excluded localities in the world around us. Through artistic appreciation we strengthen self-confidence, motivation and critical thinking, and the overall ability to deduce information and interpret it.

We are a gallery that the Romani community, especially children, seek out and spend their free time in. In 2024, we started a long-term cooperation with a Roma expert on the issue of the Roma minority and its integration in Ostrava, the content of which is consultations in order to ensure a safe environment for the community by the institution. We are also continuing this process in 2025, while also implementing a pilot educational project during which the PLATO educator works with the four-member art collective TV Páteř to prepare and implement regular creative and educational workshops for Roma children that include a range of activities.

The project is implemented thanks to the support of Moravian-Silesian Region.
