Abstract

Education is a key tool for social inclusion and upward mobility, specially referring to the case of minority groups as they have traditionally suffered situations of exclusion. School thus plays a key role as the institution that can contribute to the educational success and social inclusion of these social groups. In this article we will introduce some conclusions from two investigations conducted for and with the Roma community in order to identify barriers to be overcome and successful elements to promote their educational and social inclusion. The analysis of the Roma women's role through the Brudila Calli project illustrates how they are a key agent for the promotion of education as a successful tool for inclusion of the whole Roma community. We will also go in depth in the analysis of the research process in order to present how the critical communicative methodology has also been an essential element that is contributing to the educational success of the Roma community.
