Academic profile

Since 2005 all my researches “on” Roma were dealing with problems of living in urban sites: fieldwork in Enikő Vincze’s project of Roma women’s reproductive health in Orăştie (Romania), unemployment, ghetto-life, relations with local institutions (school and local NGO) in a shanty-town from Cluj-Napoca. Lately I’ve been carrying on a research about a state-designed joining-up educational programme for Roma in Romania.
