The SECreTour pilot about cultural tourism at the Roma community of Tomor (Hungary)

On 21st and 22nd March representatives of partners of the SECreTour project met in Tomor, at the premises of ROMAMA, the social cooperative that participates in the SECreTour pilot about Roma minority heritage.

Tomor is located in the North-East part of Hungary, hosting a large Roma population. Despite its valuable natural and cultural evidence, the area is suffering of its remote position in the country and a high uneployment rate.

The social activity experimented in the SECreTour pilot represents a very valuable opportunity of development for the local citizens, who are engaged in participatory and co-creation activities within the collaboration with ELTE University that is the pilot leader in the SECreTour project.

The team of Promoter srl and ELTE University met with a nice representation of youngsters from Tomor and the surrounding villages. It was a pleasant time, where each participant had the oppotunity to tell about him/her interests and expectations for the future. After having lunch together, a small and informal concert was also the occasion to enjoy Roma music played by local young artists.
