Description

Fundamental Rights Agency is mentioning in the ”Report regarding fundamental rights from 2020” that in 10 years of policies and resources invested, the situation of Roma have not changed, remaining the most vulnerable minority in Europe. An approach based only on an economic and service providing without to take into account the cultural ethnic background, discrimination that they face, including the lack of power in relation with the public authority, has to less chances of success. We believe, that is necessary an approach based on empowerment of those discriminated and social excluded for fighting for their rights but at the same time to aware them about the necessity of being responsible for their own life. Without this project, the community members will be evicted and remain social depended caught in the vicious circle of poverty, clients of the social measure with the victimhood mentality. In this sense we will implement o series of activities such as training for Roma leaders in human rights and civic involvement; workshop with women for preparing them in preventing domestic violence; Juridical Caravan – access to services for vulnerable population. The result of the projects will be: 60 women empowered for fighting for their rights and against domestic violence; 110 persons involved in advocacy actions; 275 persons who will change their mentality regarding human rights In implementing this project, we will have a partner who has a long experience in implementing project, including in the field of human rights. By this partnership we desire to create a best practice on a long term where O Del Amenca will coach Association for Integration and Development Vulnerable.
