Roman women carry the "triple burden" of being Roman in gender, ethnic and class intersection and face multi-discrimination. By analyzing the experiences and problems Roman women experience on the basis of both their families and communities and the wider community, the article aims to reveal the problem of Roman women’s participation in the public space and to present solutions based on it. For this purpose, 130 Roman women were surveyed in Tekirdağ-Aydoğdu Roman District, deep discussions and spatial analyses were conducted with the relevant institutions and organizations officials. Protecting women from membership, freedom, survival and exclusion in the Roman neighborhoods, etc. The conclusion was that they were visible and active in the public spaces in their neighborhoods, but the expectations of their communities to ensure the continuity of the Roman culture and the lack of sufficient access to urban services in the neighborhoods were not able to participate sufficiently in the public spaces, and that in the wider public spaces outside the neighborhoods, they were confronted with prejudices and multi-discrimination and their participation in the public spaces was very limited. Finally, on the basis of these found findings, a "Local Equality and Social Inclusion Action Plan" was proposed.
