Rescuing Afterschool Tanodas in Hungary

Operating for almost a decade in Hungary, tanodas are community-based extracurricular schools. They run after school and aim to support and teach disadvantaged Romani students; they aim to foster their success at school and improve their future chances in the labor market and social integration, since the Hungarian public education system has failed to respond to their needs. Tanodas offer tutoring based on individual development, community, cultural and sport activities, and work to strengthen the relationship between schools and parents.
