Roma Research Centre Mission of the Roma Research Centre is to contribute to the better information of the Slovak society about Roma in Slovakia; with publication of research outcomes and facts about the life and culture of Roma the Centre aims to weaken prejudices and signs of nationalism. The Centre aims in this way to contribute to the building of tolerant and open society in the Slovak Republic. Aim of the Centre for the years 2003-2006 are: to summarise and systematise information and knowledge on Roma in Slovakia; to realise research programs and projects on Roma in Slovakia (youth, identity, social situation); to establish an effective network of Slovak and international experts and organisations realising research on Roma and so to ensure the information flow and establishment of partnerships among them. Databases managed by the Forum Minority Research Centre The Forum Minority Research Institute started to develop its Internet databases in 2000. The aim was to create a database that follows the changes in demographic, economic, social, and minority-related data of Slovakia’s settlements from 1918 up to this day. The idea is based on the concept according to which each recordable data can be allocated to a certain settlement and a certain date. Then these data can be, at the relevant levels of administrative regions, summed up, compared, or evaluated.
