RDS: With the new position Directory for Roma Issues, results can be achieved, but only with real work and high engagement

Today, when we celebrate 29 years of independence from our country, one of the questions that arise is: Where is the Roma community here ?. The elections are over, the Government has been formed, some of the ministries have been restricted and among them one that has been intended for the Roma for decades - the Ministry without portfolio for the implementation of the Roma strategy.

In the new Government Scheme, this place is now replaced by a Directory. Who will lead that department is still unknown, but the fact is that most Roma parties and organizations, associations and the like. they are literally "fighting" over who will take that position.

RDS from the aspect of a long-term expert on the situation with the Roma community in the country together with the Network for Sustainable and Systemic Solutions composed of Roma NGOs and associations, repeatedly reacted and offered plans and strategies to state institutions (Government, ministries, parliament). Those strategies were essentially comprehensive, and made good analyzes, plan and program for their realization and implementation.

But what is here is. Now the new Directory gives a different chance for the realization of some of those plans. The opinion of RDS is that in order to resolve those issues related to the Roma community in the country, it is necessary to appoint a real person and a team that will work in the next period. At the same time, real engagement and sincere intentions are needed, without improvisations. A connection with all relevant factors is also needed to ask questions important to the Roma community. The focus of the work needs to be placed on the priority areas that will be proposed by organizations and associations, and not to represent some form of party agenda.

According to RDS, these are in the field of social, health, employment, housing and also the focus should be on the upcoming population census which is scheduled for 2021, to know the exact demographic picture in the country and no more room for manipulation and favoritism. of one and minimizing another community.

It is necessary for the future head of that directory to be accessible, transparent, and at the same time flexible and ready for cooperation with all parties. Because only in that way can results be achieved that will benefit the Roma community as a very important element.

Here is RDS and the Network for Systems Solutions with wide arms for cooperation with all parties. Finally, RDS mentions in this case that everyone is equal and no one wants to be underestimated, discredited and no one should be favored. It is about the nation and not about individuals or a group of people.

 

WHO issues warning for the Balkans: New measures possible from tomorrow!

The WHO says the Balkans are a hotbed of the Kopona virus, and one of the consequences will be that Croatia could be included in the English quarantine list starting today.

WHO officials said they had been "concerned about the Balkans since the beginning of June", due to the large influx of tourists to these areas and the large increase in infected cases.

It is feared that tourists who have flocked to the Balkans will spread the infection further, so it is possible that Croatia will be the first in the region to end up on the "red lists", which means that British citizens will be advised not to travel. there except in emergencies, and that a two-day quarantine awaits them upon their return.

The situation in the Balkans has worried us since the beginning of June, when we saw that the number of cases was growing. "We will have to take appropriate steps to try to prevent infection," said Dr Katherine Smallwood of the WHO, adding that all figures were strictly followed.

In Croatia, they have been struggling all week with the increase in the number of infected people, and yesterday they had the largest number of newly infected people during the whole month. This will cause real hysteria among the British who are already in Croatia or planning a vacation there, because when they returned they did not count on mandatory quarantine.

And a similar fate, it seems, awaits Greece. The numbers are growing with them, but they are still not dramatic, say the WHO.

 

European Parliament: Demand to fight Roma social exclusion, poverty and anti-Roma sentiment

The Committee on Civil Liberties on Thursday adopted a resolution condemning anti-Roma sentiment, which Roma in Europe are most vulnerable to, as well as poverty and social inclusion.
The EU and its members are fighting structural anti-Gypsyism and enacting laws where Roma have equal access to housing, education, health and employment, the European Parliament has said.
The text for the plenary session, which will be voted on in October, was adopted by 52 votes in favor. 9 - against and 5 abstained.
The proposal should include a plan to eliminate inequality in housing, health, employment and education, and a specific binding goal for better inclusion. Efforts need to be stepped up in all EU member states, especially those with a large Roma population, say members of the European Parliament.

Institute of Social Sciences: Harder to find employment if you are Roma?

Is it true that if you are Roma it is harder to find employment in Serbia and is it prejudice or truth?
That is one of the questions that needs to be answered in a new study by the Institute of Social Sciences in Serbia.
The organizers of this research emphasize that Roma face a number of prejudices that were the basis for discrimination and thus a barrier to exercising the right to work of the Roma nationality.
"The survey that was conducted should confirm or deny that situation with segregation and that it is a strong barrier to the exercise of those rights," said the organizers.
The latest data say that their number is about 29 thousand members of the Roma nationality.
Practice shows that Roma are rarely employed in the administration, and the most common employments are low-skilled and manual workers.
