The fifth-grade students of “Vuk Stefanović Karadžić” Elementary School used their trip to the Doboj National Library to learn something about the Romani language, which is unknown to many of them.

“It’s the first time I’ve heard of the Romani language, and it seems very difficult to master. I found it very interesting and it reminds me a little of the German language, because some sounds are marked by two letters,” said Stefan Radovanović, while his school friend Nikša Pejičić believes that Roma fairy tales more beautiful than the ones he had the chance to hear and read so far.

Czech Sterilisation and Compensation

novembre 8, 2022 Published by: Roma Foundation

Soňa Karolová (65) will not receive compensation for the forced sterilisation she was submitter too. The doctors justified it in writing by her being a Romni. She is one of the 116 victims of involuntary sterilization to whom the Ministry of Health refused compensation of 300,000 crowns which was recently decided by the parliament. According to lawyers, this is a systemic failure. The ministry declined to comment on the case.

SHAME!
