Romanis are Europe’s single largest minority group. Traditional policies of group protection, cultural diversity and minority inclusion have failed to redress social deprivation and exclusion of Romanis and were largely unsuccessful in changing the perceptions of the dominant societies about Romani communities. With no kin-state of their own and lacking opportunities for mobilising political or economic resources, Romanis remain poorly organised, disempowered and largely marginal communities living in parallel to dominant societies. In this section of our website you will find policy documents regarding Romanis in individual European states and in Europe as a whole.
