Bulgaria: Lawyer Miglena Mihailova: Roma Should Be Included as Enumerators

The Roma Civic Association also invites Roma to join as enumerators. The extended deadline for recruiting enumerators expires on November 16.
In 2011, the real number of Roma in Bulgaria was not adequately reflected in the census, explained in the program "Before All" Miglena Mihajlova from the movement "Permanent Conference for Roma". Among the reasons, she stressed the fear of free expression of ethnic origin. "This is the so-called stigmatization in our society towards the Roma community ”. The data collected influences the planning and financing of various public services, such as health and education. The state needs them for proper allocation of public resources, Mihajlova claims.
According to the lawyer, the Roma community as part of Bulgarian society should participate and get involved "in this difficult process for the state". Data are being collected that can improve the situation in the Roma community and in the whole society in the coming years, said Miglena Mihajlova for BNR. According to Mihajlova, the financial argument leads us to those who have expressed a desire to include representatives of the Roma community.

Kosovo Roma live on the margins of society and investing in education is necessary

During the pandemic and the fight against the coronavirus, the position of the Roma from Kosovo is further aggravated, and their economic situation is at an unenviable level, said the representative of the Roma community in Kosovo, Gazmen Salijevic.
"We are all aware of the pandemic, but we should also think of the weak group of citizens specifically for the Roma. Many Roma live on social income, collecting secondary raw materials or manual labor. "With the pandemic, families are not able to earn a living, to feed their children," said Salijevic.
He noted that those Roma who remained to live in Kosovo and fight for survival, equality and against prejudice.
"No institution, whether political, social or cultural, has dealt seriously with solving the problems facing the Roma in Kosovo," Salijevic said.
He reminds that the Roma are on the margins of society, but not of their own free will, but at the will of the system that continuously discriminates against them.
"Despite the good will for integration, for coexistence, neither the political nor the social system are ready to help us and are not sincere with joint efforts to overcome stereotypes and everything else where the majority population wants to label us," he said.
Salijevic said that the Roma from Kosovo lack programmatic investment in education, because without education a healthy nation with a future can not be expected.

“From Gypsy to Jersey”

Probably there isn’t any such thing as a typical adoption story, but if there were to be one, it certainly wouldn’t be Yael Schusterman Adler’s.
Yael, who grew up in Fort Lee and now lives in Randolph, always knew that she was adopted. Her parents, Marcy and Herb Schusterman, never kept that truth from her. But none of them talked about it much, and Yael wasn’t very interested in it. She grew up as a happy only child, close to her family, cherished by her parents and secure in their love. She didn’t particularly look like her parents, but not all children do, and she didn’t stand out as not possibly theirs by DNA. But just about two years ago, after her father died, she was helping her mother clean up their apartment when she came across paperwork about her adoption. “It was a treasure trove,” Yael said. “It was gold. It was things that I’d never seen before; it was exciting and intriguing. And I’d just turned 30 — a big milestone birthday. So it made me think — now I have all this information in front of me. What do I do? Do I ignore it? Just go on with my life? Or do I pay attention to it.”
