FINALLY Meeting and “Broaden Horizons: Networks and Experiences for Successful Roma Inclusion” International Conference has been organized in Slovenia, Dolenjske Toplice, in the 26th and 27th of November. Trnava University, Public Health Department has been actively involved in many discussions and working activities during the conference. We have participated in the meeting of the project FINALLY (Financial Literacy of Roma) first and then we have been continuing active participation at the conference. Conference has brought together practitioners from more than 10 countries, approximately 260 participants.
The conference mission was to emphasize the importance of connecting the stakeholders in the field of Roma inclusion, networking and cooperation between different stakeholders.
We have been presented project titled: „Training packages for health professionals to improve access and quality of health services for migrants and ethnic minorities, including the Roma (MEM-TP)” and exchanged our experience with pilot training for health professionals.
The most important issue during the conference we would like to highlight is the conference format. Plenary sessions were combined with Project Market and small group’s discussions what was very useful for establishing new partnerships, and the exchange of best practices through the use of materials produced within the framework of various projects in the field of Roma integration.
