KASKOSAN’S MISSION
KaskoSan, founded by East European Roma living in the UK, works with the East European Roma community both digitally and offline since 2009. In collaboration with dedicated partners, we produce cultural content and consultancy. Our films, dramas, art performances and Romani language and cultural workshops aim to inspire critical thinking in terms of Roma inclusion and develop ways to maximize engagement.
Most Romani speakers and their descendants are subjects of anti-gypsy views and remain disengaged by Roma inclusion initiatives, while an overwhelming majority of Romani Gypsies carry on dealing with the multi-generational trauma of anti-gypsyism, isolation, mental ill-health, and intense poverty.
KaskoSan has been nurturing ‘Romanipe’, the emerging global Roma identity, since 2009 in central and Eastern Europe and since 2014 in the U.K. We have been growing a pro-active and self-assertive community that is proudly reclaiming its culture to erase centuries of misinformation about Romani speakers and their descendants.
OUR VALUES
Think Big. Act Bigger.
