More Than Carpentry - Slovakia

Roma Man learning carpentry work
OM EAST helped local partners in Kosice, Slovakia to equip a wood workshop with machines and tools. Located in one of the biggest Roma ghettos in Central Europe, the workshop is used to run carpentry training courses.

After graduating from the course, four students recently found permanent jobs. Along with valuable skills, the course also teaches moral and Christian values and behaviour to men from the Roma community.
