POVERTY OF THE ROMANIAN ROMA MINORITY – CURRENT DIMENSIONS

Summary/Abstract: Roma people poverty is a topic analysed by the relevant national and European bodies, and attention is paid to the policies implemented with the purpose to reduce the risk of social exclusion. Within the context of a total European Roma population of 10-12 million people, the evaluations regarding the Roma people living in Romania focus on the aspects specific to the risk of poverty, and from this perspective, the aim is to develop and apply policies that are adapted, as much as possible, to the national situation. Thus, from the design and implementation of standardized directions of action, to the identification of the success results, and to the propagation and replication of the good practices, a more generous space should be created and used to capitalise on the positive experiences. This article is a new call to go on with the systematic approaches focalised on impact, with the purpose to improve the situation of the Roma people living in Romania.
