NORDIC-BALTIC ROMA INSTITUTE
We work with Roma families, local entrepreneurs, and public institutions to turn vulnerable communities into real partners in the economy and civic life, not just project target groups.
We design and run practical pilots in services, trades, and local tourism.
We build confidential capability maps of families, skills, and risks.
We translate between Roma communities, institutions, and investors.

Pilot projects where Roma are minority partners in real businesses: farms, services, light industry, forestry and wild products, together with experienced entrepreneurs.
Practical work with Roma families on rights, responsibilities, elections and representation. We help new Roma leaders grow and connect them with democratic institutions.
Cross-border projects between Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and the Nordic countries (Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark), where Roma are not only beneficiaries, but co-designers and co-owners of initiatives.
North Roma Institute is a Roma-led, trust-based platform that:
Our work starts in Estonia and the Baltic region and extends to Roma networks across Finland, Sweden and other Nordic countries.
