At its 14th plenary meeting (Strasbourg, 24 to
27 October 2017), the Ad Hoc Committee of
Experts on Roma and Traveller Issues (CAHROM)
examined four CAHROM thematic reports, namely on
the protection, preservation and teaching of
languages spoken by Roma, Sinti, Kaale and
Yenish including ways to handle the opposition
of traditional communities to have their
language written and taught (following a
thematic visit in Graz, Austria, on 29-31 March
2017); on challenges and best practices in
implementing Roma inclusion strategies,
including mechanisms for solving personal
identification documents and improving access to
social services (following a thematic visit in
Kyiv, Ukraine, on 26-28 April 2017); on Roma
mediation with a focus on school
mediators/assistants (following a thematic visit
in Vilnius and Panaževis, Lithuania, on 25-27
April 2017); and on the situation of eastern
Roma groups (Roma from Turkey and South
Caucasus, Lom/Bosha/Posha, Dom/Garachi/Karachi,
and Abdal) and policy responses to their needs
(following a thematic visit in Tbilissi,
Georgia, on 21-23 June 2017). The CAHROM also
took note of the review document prepared by the
Secretariat following responses received to a
questionnaire on the impact, outcome and
follow-up given to CAHROM thematic visits and
reports over the period 2012-2017 [document
CAHROM (2017)29] available on CAHROM website
www.coe.int/roma/cahrom. The next CAHROM plenary
meeting will take place in Athens, Greece, on
22-25 May 2018. |
