In 2012 the National Strategy for Social Inclusion of the Gypsy People in Spain 2012-2020 (Estrategia Nacional para la Inclusión Social de la Población Gitana en España 2012-2020) was created to foster and promote the Gypsy culture. The funding of the strategy depends on the budget of programs aimed at the whole population, programs developed exclusively to the Gypsy population and the projects of the different Autonomous Regions.
