Alena Švejdová

I am a Czech teacher, and I have worked with the team since the beginning of the project which was always close to my heart as I have been also involved in the preparation period.

What do you want the VHSC to teach the Roma community as well as our school community?

"To the Roma community: Let us cooperate, hard work always bring fruit. To our community - Let us learn how to open our hearts like a Roma singer does when they sing."

Kryštof Folbrecht

Hello, my name is Kryštof and I am helping with leading and organising Václav Havel Scholarship Concert. I love to be a part of a team motivated by this initiative of providing opportunities for those who deserve them. I believe that good education is one of the most important aspects of a well-functioning society and that by making it accessible for others, we are investing in a better future.

Anna Bartová

I'm half Irish, half Czech, and I love theatre. I was in charge of managing our team in the past and look forward to helping our team again.

What does Roma mean to you?

"A lovely community that I would love to see getting more opportunities in life which I am trying to give them."

Eileen Griffin

Hello, my name is Eileen Griffin and I am new to the Vaclav Havel concert organization team. I believe that education is vital. We are the ones that will decide the future and to make good decisions you need a good education. I believe that finance should not play a role in this and that is why I really like the idea of this entire project.
Education is one of the most important things. Present and future of the whole world is built only on our knowledge. Learning is the only one way we can develop us and our world.

Linda Tomaskova

Hello, I am Linda and I have already joined to Václav Havel Scholarship Organisation. Getting on ECP was one of the best things in my life and I am really happy I can help raising the money for the Scholarship for another new student.

Selma Kaymakci

Hi everyone, I am Selma and I am the new leader of the Vaclav Havel Scholarship Concert organisation team. I believe that good education is a key to success. Today's education is what will determine the future of our world. I think that by giving an opportunity to a Roma student to study at ECP we not only support the education but also raise awareness and break the prejudices set by society.

Martin Strnad

My name is Martin Strnad. I have set myself out on a journey of discovery and improvement. My aim is to be the best person I could be and help as many individuals on the way as possible. It's not easy. Nothing is. But I have been given a chance to study at a great school of ECP, an opportunity to fully develop myself in a highly productive, academic environment. I want to help another young person, regardless of their skin colour, to achieve the same goal. That's why I am part of the Vaclav Havel Scholarship.

Anise Dos Reis

Hi! My name is Anise, and I joined the Václav Havel Scholarship concert organisation team last year. I think good education should be provided to talented students, not depending on their social status or financial situation and that is why I enjoy taking part in this project.

Karolina Hamdanova

Hi! My name is Karolina and I am a new member of the Václav Havel Scholarship concert. Education is one of the most important things. Present and future of the whole world is built only on our knowledge. Learning is the only way we can develop us and our world.

Tatana Horka

Hello! I am Tanja, and I am a new member of the Vaclav Havel Scholarship Concert organisation team. I am excited to take a part in the project, as I believe everyone should have an equal opportunity to access high-quality education no matter their financial situation.
