A campaign to put the education of Roma students on the political agenda
Using the hastag #LeonorDejaLaEscuela (#LeonorDropsoutSchool) and the confusion as a hook, the campaign put the education of Roma girls and boys on the public debate and called the attention to the high rate of early school dropout: 6 out of 10 Roma students leave the studies before finishing the Compulsory Secondary Education.
Have a look at your dreams
Campaign to combat the early drop out of the classrooms of great part of the Roma students. Integrated by different actions: a casting in 21 cities in Spain; a "mentoring" action so that the young, with the hand of a professional of prestige, can have a look to the job of their dreams; also a concert to disseminate the project.
Raising awareness of the need to complete secondary studies for a better future
Roma with studies, Roma with a future
