Pro.Romani

Baxtalo Romano Des!
In April 1971, London, Roma representatives from all over the world gathered at the first World Romani Congress, where a number of important decisions were made, including:
- Recognition of the official use of the name Roma
- Adoption of the national symbols, such as the anthem Dzelem dzelem and the blue and green flag with the red 16-spoked chakra
- Establishing 5 sub-commissions focused on social affairs, education, culture, language and war crimes.

Later April the 8th was declared International Roma Day -
The celebration of Romani culture, language and history. It helps to break down stereotypes, and reminds us of the need to respect diversity.
