Summary/Abstract: The intercultural education aims at developing an education for all in the spirit of recognizing the differences that exist within the same society. We can say that a large part of the gypsy population, so their children too, suffers from the process of marginalization and therefore requires a sustained intervention strategy, addressing both the marginalized and the majority, to form an intercultural society, by different but equal individuals, connected to the general values of humanity and respecting a common set of norms, but at the same time being in a permanent cultural and spiritual exchange. The education of gypsy children requires a special approach in which the initial data of this ethnic group can be a starting point for finding a solution to the issue of integration. In order to better understand the essence and the role of the intercultural education, we must accept that each of us is born in a particular culture, and in order to survive and grow in that culture, we must basically learn how to learn the basics, the norms, the values and the rules that make it possible to integrate into that culture.
