The core of the exhibition is a presentation of the programs of the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports to support the Romani community and Romani students at secondary and higher vocational schools: illustrative examples of projects supported by state subsidies and numbers of students supported are complemented by panels representing schools operating in socially excluded localities or schools where the inclusive education model is successfully practiced. All the information is set in a historical context, with several banners devoted to the history of special education in the Czech Republic and projects to improve the education of the Roma population from the 1950s and 1960s that are not well known to the general public.

This exhibition had become the prologue of the National celebrations of Jan Amos Comenius 2020-2022, and it presents one of the most famous writings of the „Teacher of nations“. The exhibition falls into a joint concept of Comenius National Pedagogical Museum and Library and National museum in Prague. The textbook Orbis sensualium pictus (The Visible World in Pictures) widened the edition of Comenius’ older textbook Janua linguarum resetata (Door of languages unlocked) and was complemented by illustrations. During the past two centuries ORBIS PICTUS was published many times and even nowadays it is not a work belonging to the past.
