Our first publication on countering antigypsyism
“Roma: Myths and Facts. A Teacher’s Guide on Countering Antigypsyism” – is a publication prepared to combat prejudice against Roma in Ukrainian society. The authors use their extensive experience to offer ways of deconstruction of the popular myths though reflection, critical thinking and historical education.
The guide should be helpful to educators who value tolerance as an important competence and want to encourage their students to overcome old and new stereotypes and prejudice against Roma, learn more about Roma history and traditions. Sample lesson plans from the guide would be suitable for teaching history, social science, law, ethics, philosophy. They could be also used for education hours.
