Roma are deprived of health care
According to the President of the Union of Roma of Slovenia Jožko Horvat Muca, the Roma community is deprived of health care. “Roma are still living in often illegal settlements, under bad conditions, without drinking water and electricity. All of this contributes to the poor health situation”.

Yet again a SVP politician making rabid statements against Roma. So far, no one made a formal complaint to the police. This is unfortunately being felt as almost useless in Switzerland where a politician stating that all Roma lie, are lazy, dirty etc. has not been considered to the worthy of a condemnation …

Schooling is difficult for Roma in Bosnia. In Modrički Lug, a van was is planned to be bought in order to ferry Roma children to the nearby city of Vukosavlje, where they can pursue their school career. There is no upper secondary school in the city, and due to poverty, most cannot afford the transport. The purchase is a local Roma initiative.

Is it a trend? Or is it a change? The news this week on Roma in France are definitively different. Education, about a Romni in Montreuil fighting for the enrolment of Roma children in school; help, with a story of students of a prestigious French university (Science Po) devoting time to Roma in Poitiers; a Roma manifestation in Nice about the living conditions in Romania; a movie about a Roma family; an integration centre is being discussed in the North of France and one opened near Paris in Ivry; and then the usual news, a fire in a camp in the North, and a camp closure near Paris.
Finally, racism in France with Moslems and Roma coming on the top of the league … A depressing pattern in Europe.
