While regulations against discrimination have conventionally been vindicated and conveyed in terms of various principles of equality, tensions between these notions of equality erode their cohesion. Discrimination is still a major problem in today's world. The OUR STAGE project aimed to fight the descriminitation of Roma people, to eliminate the stereotypes and to designate the importance of barriers that the ROMA people face, as well as to bring to the forefront the culture, the history, the traditions of ROMA Community.
