a photo of him on the wall outside his house. the next story takes us to romania where nearly a 3rd of the population lives in poverty roma families are among the worst affected jenny russia is trying to help improve the lot of roma children in c.b.d. . cosman wants to get in here into this new house which looks so nice and clean because till now he and his 5 siblings have been living here in an old hot made from wooden sticks and clay this is one of the many roma settlements in romania always on the outside of the villages it's a small miracle that houses are being built here at all which have got their old. i tried with the bank but they didn't give me a loan. my salaries too small. it's

a lot of money i had no chance to do anything to that have any possibility that there's a. instead the money for the building materials comes from genuine fashion the founder of a german aid project now how. she has been helping these roma communities around seaview for more than 10 years about one in 3 rumanians lives in poverty and the roma are the poorest of all. almost all miss it you have to be able to dream of it but leave room for small miracles because that's how it all happened i didn't want to accept things as they were here. i mean it's up to. all the men have to help with the building work because jenny believes in learning to help yourself. because the idea of i don't look like they're the money comes from private donors in germany the european union also spends

a lot of money in romania 10000000000 euros every year jenny had spectra seaview she's not too keen on the e.u. funds the battle with local authorities spending them their corruption and lack of cooperation is too difficult. let about half of this nation maybe they should think about sending people from brussels to those countries to see who's responsible for inspecting projects and finding out where all the money goes it's almost as its overall journey things romania has profited immensely from being a member of the e.u. the infrastructure in the cities is much improved europe has also helped building schools and paying teachers but in roma settlements only one child in 5 is actually going to school more than anything else education is the key to a better future for the roma communities in romania. right

wing populist in germany keep looking for ways to mitigate the crimes of the nazis leading members of the f.t.c. are trying again can they revise the currently accepted approach to remember this. not far from berlin sachsenhausen concentration camp was one of many sites where people were brutally annihilated on a huge scale german world war 2 school groups come here from across europe to learn about nazi atrocities. as the sort this is really depressing. that makes me feel very sad as it's a horrible feeling to be here. until now there has been a consensus in german politics to ensure that the crimes of the nazi era and not forgotten especially among younger generations. but the far right a if de reject this they claim nazi history takes up too much school time and say the culture of remembrance is bad for germany. the effect ladies and gentlemen is

quite clear young people are systematically brought up to feel guilt and shame about being german and they learn to associate germany with evil is this to us it's you know these sentiments are not just expressed in parliament 3 debates the director of the sachsenhausen memorial says sites like this are directly targeted by the far right. there was a group here that was either in the f.t. or aligned with it but we don't know if they were party members who were denying nazi crimes. by the public prosecutor's office is continuing but these people even deny the existence of the gas chambers. provocations like these are only part of the a if these tactics for example in a state of bottom the party has tried to reduce public funding for memorials there

is no majority support for such measures but some fear that public opinion may change. if pieces germany's nazi past should be seen in a wider context. we also want to focus on the positive aspects of german history because we think every nation needs positive points to identify with its. what. stressing the favorable aspects of german history is pulling the wool over people's eyes i think it's wrong and downright dangerous we have done important work over decades taking a critical look at our own history. our political conflicts that could affect the future of germany's public memorials. too and i didn't make the tour here about 250 fishermen and 10 times as many snakes they shouldn't be disturbed why. knows that very well.

victoria. over 150000 which give the island. down below them on the ground a much quieter beasts. over 1000 island. in a unique example of color existence with man. but. do not be chinese snakes these are spirits of the island attached to our culture. over 100 fishermen leave on the island. and the man will cut on bali is the most experienced. he has lived here for more than 35 years. an old man of the sea he has retired from commercial fishing. then 97 year old is

the custodian of long held customs which for killing the snakes they called reza believed to be the spirits of a south korean island. i don't really say he has never seen a cobra attack in no one except once when he was attacked himself. a lower. day i must have angered the snake when i carried it out of the house so that i could sleep at a crawl back in but picked it up again and threw it out and then went to bed early i will notice donna surely it crawled back in. this time and picked it up and it turned its head in bit me. the snake shouldn't be harassed even if it means sharing a bed with some of. you. for that reason the snakes move freely in and out of the wood in aus is. nearly all.

of that is the name of the island spirits and its traditions are rather strict no one cuts down a tree for any reason. buds to shouldn't be killed and their eggs must not be eaten. but the custom of the prohibits women on the island is the one that is toughest for the fishermen. say don't do no point i will be good to finish your work and go home and see your family every day you know how your child spent the night to know what they need and unfortunately it's not possible here one of the it's a one. so can tally has to leave the island at least once every 2 weeks to see his family. at this landing site. and tell you also so the scotch. when the fishermen meet and tell here many wants to go to the island with him but he sees that only

a limited number in the remote island. that only thinks that a large population would straighten the islands which biodiversity. he suffered a couple of painful cuts from the graded gals. a few druther stiff seal with a mole bides and this makes the humans. come. come
