08 April Romani International Day -History

            

The International Day of the Rroma is one of few holidays of the Romanies which became an international event in the 1990'. It is a day that is focused on celebrating the Romany culture and extending awareness on Romany problems.
In spite of all the efforts to promote it, the holiday is not very well known by the majority population but not even by the ordinary Romanies. This day is rather known by people of the civic sector and they are just these people who try to organize celebrations in various towns.
