YILÓ. (Heart)

YILÓ is a group of four Roma women who live in two neighbourhoods in Seville, Spain.

They have been collaborating for over two years with researchers to advocate for socially just living conditions for Roma families in their neighbourhoods. All of them are proud Roma women and mothers in their 30s and 40s. They will be reporting on their lives and the lives of their neighbours, their fight against discrimination, the abandonment of public services and unveil the resilience of their community. Together with their co-journalist, their goal is to make visible the voices of all Roma women, to empower their community narratives and be a part of the decision-making spaces that affect their lives.
