TRACER - Transformative Roma Art and Culture for European Remembrance is a project funded under the European Commission's Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values (CERV) programme. The aim of the project is to involve groups of Roma and non-Roma youths and teenagers in Italy, Portugal and Poland in the construction of a shared memory of the holocaust of Sinti and Roma minorities in Europe.
Reclaiming a sense of history through the memory of Porrajmos so that policies directed towards discrimination are no longer possible: this is the theme that connects Tracer project groups' actions in the different territories.
