This example shows that if there is a combination of opportunities, support and space, Roma young people can work towards participation semi-independently. The project has been a means for a group of young Roma to understand how they can play an active role in society. It has seen them addressing their individual and collective concerns. The project has also been an important step in celebrating their own identity, another part of the participation picture of this example. One of the most important aspects of participation that this example provides is through the sense of solidarity the Roma and non-Roma young people were able to promote.
