Serban wrote the play, "I declare at my own risk" while studying acting for a semester in New York a decade ago. It deals with her turbulent childhood in Bucharest.

Forum "Challenges and Opportunities for Roma Children and Youth" - Roma children will be included in state-run kindergartens

The inclusion of Roma in quality pre-school education and in the educational process and creating conditions for employment was the topic of the recent held forum "Challenges and opportunities for children and young Roma" as part of the regional project "Increased educational opportunities for students and young Roma in the Western Balkans and Turkey"

Only 30 percent of children in the Republic of Northern Macedonia are included in pre-school education, which means a smaller number of Roma children included (2.1 percent).

Therefore, it has been decided to increase the capacities for admitting Roma children to kindergartens, if human capital is respected as a state. All Roma children, systematically, will be included in the kindergartens and it will be financed by the state.

This is a great start for system education, for which there is full support from all key stakeholders in the country and we are monitored by the international community
