To mark International Roma Day, the United States Embassy in Prague is proud to announce a special grant competition to support Roma inclusion in the Czech Republic.

U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic Andrew Schapiro: “This special call is a symbol of the support we have for our partners in the Romani community. We believe in the ideals of inclusion and a celebration of the different cultures and backgrounds that make up the Czech Republic. As Americans we understand the challenges and obstacles to a truly open and inclusive society, and we honor those working to make a positive difference.”
