Within the project Unlocking the potential of Roma women returnees and the other vulnerable groups of women for the inclusive economic development, as part of the ” Returning to New Opportunities” program, members of the Roma population – returnees from abroad, as well as members of other vulnerable groups were allowed to participate in three gratis trainings:

  • How to become an entrepreneur

  • Programming school: web development

The trainings will be realized in three cities: Belgrade, Novi Sad and Nis. After the trainings, the instructors will provide mentoring support to the participants for three to nine months and monitor their further improvement.

With the support of RAB Serbia, and in order to achieve the common main goal of the project, poverty reduction by raising the employability of vulnerable groups of Roma returnees and non-returnees in Serbia with special attention to vulnerable groups of women, the project will be promoted in the media throughout Serbia during the implementation period from May 2019 to April 2020.
