The National Forum organised by #ROMACT in Sofia 🇧🇬 enabled stocktaking of the housing access for disadvantaged populations and the impact that inadequate housing has on children rights & their future.

See our key findings ⬇️

[ROMACT @ROMACT_EC_CoE]

For many children, especially in Roma communities, growing up without stable, safe & legally secure home means facing barriers in education, health, & a dignified future from the very start.

🔜 more findings & recommendations of the #ROMACT National Forum on Housing.

[Kasia Michno @kasmichno]

The event on housing and child rights that #ROMACT held in Sofia 🇧🇬 back in March resulted in a clear definition of major issues in access to & adequate housing for children in Bulgaria.

🔜 we will share concrete recommendations that the event participants jointly formulated.

[ROMACT @ROMACT_EC_CoE]

Solutions are within reach.

Examples from Europe & some Bulgarian municipalities show that when housing is treated as a right, & when institutions work together in a coordinated & practical way, real change is possible.

[Commissioner for Human Rights @CommissionerHR]

Marking the start of #OpreRoma! month at the @coe, I met the Committee of Experts on Roma and Traveller Issues (ADI-ROM) and Roma and Traveller-led civil society and highlighted 6 pillars to drive change for Roma and Travellers across Europe:
1️⃣ Confront racism: To progress, we must tackle the racism in our societies.
2️⃣ True partnership: We must do better work with Roma and Travellers.
3️⃣ Celebrate diverse cultures to break through the wall of indifference.
4️⃣ Never forget: Remembering and educating on the Roma Holocaust and past injustices, such as forced sterilisation, is crucial.
5️⃣ Go local:Very often, meaningful solutions depend on bridging national initiatives at the local level.
6️⃣ Choose hope: Every Roma and Traveller child’s dream deserves a fair shot.
We cannot stand by while Europe’s largest ethnic minority still awaits equality and justice. Together, we must strive to deliver on their human rights.
For insight into the stories of resilience of Roma and Traveller communities and the women driving change, I invite you to read my book THE UNHEARD 12 MILLION https://t.co/oPFdXB0dLu

From operational procedures to strategic planning, #ROMACT support helps social workers prepare vulnerable families for successful access to social housing and long‑term inclusion. 🏘️✨

[Alain Berset @alain_berset]

The death penalty has no place in modern justice and is incompatible with respect for fundamental human rights.

I urge the Israeli authorities to abandon their new law.

A strong step toward community-driven economic empowerment.
