Biography

Joci Márton is a Roma LGBTQ+ activist whose work lies at the intersection of culture, representation, and social justice. A qualified teacher with a specialization in Romani studies, he also participated in the CEU Roma Program. He has written extensively on arts and culture, focusing particularly on the representation of minorities, and has curated exhibitions centered on Roma LGBTQ+ themes. Together with Boglárka Fedorkó, he created the anthology These Roma Are Queer, which filled a significant gap in Hungarian literature by bringing the stories and experiences of Roma LGBTQ+ individuals to the forefront.
Joci is a co-founder of "Ame Panzh," an informal Roma group that shapes public discourse on minorities through social media content, addressing contemporary social issues from a feminist/queer Roma perspective.
