An expert from RCISD took part in the Transnational Cultural Lab, organized within Work Package 3 (WP3) of the Roma RISE Project, held between 29–31 May 2026 in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. The event was hosted by Tranzit House and brought together project partners and youth participants from across Europe to foster intercultural dialogue, cooperation, and social inclusion.

Implemented under the Erasmus+ Youth Programme, the meeting served as a platform for exchanging experiences, strengthening European cooperation networks, and empowering young people through collaborative learning activities. Participants engaged in educational and intercultural community-building initiatives focused on inclusion, active participation, and social cohesion. The programme also featured inspiring cultural experiences, including Forum Theatre activities organized by Tranzit House, discovery routes through the local community, and spontaneous recordings of traditional Roma music, highlighting the richness and diversity of Roma cultural heritage. The Cluj-Napoca meeting marked another important milestone in the Roma RISE project, supporting the development of innovative approaches to youth engagement and intercultural understanding. Project activities will continue with upcoming educational meetings and joint initiatives in Thessaloniki, Greece.
