Sustainable Policies for Roma and Sinti Integration
Vienna, 10-11 July 2008While institutional and legal frameworks necessary for integrating minorities have been successfully developed, serious problems remain with regard to the realization of the human rights of Roma and Sinti groups, including economic, social and cultural rights, throughout the OSCE region. A number of countries are witnessing the emergence of new trends, stemming from isolation, poverty, and lack of socialization as much as from intentional discrimination of Roma and Sinti.
This Supplementary Human Dimension Meeting, jointly organized by the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) and the Finnish Chairmanship of the OSCE, will review existing initiatives and practices, and recommend measures to ensure effective implementation of the OSCE Action Plan on Improving the Situation of Roma and Sinti in the OSCE Region at the municipal and community levels.
