The aim of the project is to connect community contemporary art, culture, attitudes and opinions of the Roma national minority and its diversity in an attractive and innovative form of moderated discussion of the quiz format and musical, educational meetings together with members of the band Lomnické čháve. The project is implemented directly in selected 15 schools in the Košice and Prešov regions. Based on the story of members from the band Lomnické čháve, who have experienced generational poverty themselves, the project wants to show that life can change slowly and that even a person from a settlement without water, without sewerage, can also graduate from university. The aim is to combat prejudice, address generational poverty, extremism and radicalism in society for the benefit of those, who are considered different because of the color of their skin.

The Association for Culture, Education and Communication (ACEC) is a partner of the project and will take over the function of lecturer and professional guarantor over the entire project. It will help to eruditely prepare the structure of moderated discussions on racism, xenophobia and generational poverty, as it has many years of experience in this area.
