The Romani Studies Program (RSP) has successfully closed the initiative of Roma in European Societies (RES). This was a unique and collective initiative that created a pathway to higher education to support the emergence of Roma intelligentsia in various sectors from academia to policy making and business. The RES donors, VELUX Foundations, Open Society Foundations-Roma Initiative Office (OSF - RIO), and the Roma Educational Fund (REF) provided financial support for the past six years. RSP hosted the last RES Advisory Board meeting in October 2021, which marked the end of the RES project.
