Organization Cesta Von: Fighting Generational Poverty. (28.5.2026 16:00)

Today's programme talks about the organization Cesta Von, focusing on their largest project Omama, which focuses on supporting children growing up in generational poverty from their earliest years. Trained women from marginalized Roma communities (known as “omamas”) regularly visit families, helping parents develop their children’s skills and prepare them for a more successful start in school and in life. The aim is not only to support children, but also to provide employment and education for local women, who themselves become part of positive change within their communities. The guests of the programme will be the organization’s director Martin Hrica, analyst and researcher Shoshanna Chovan, and a field worker — omama Zuzka with her mentor Janka.
