Pristina, Kosovo

The Association EPEKA, Soc. Ent., and on its behalf Stefan Simoncic will participate in the Roma Regional Summit, which will take place from 23 to 25 November at the Sirus Hotel in Pristina, Kosovo.

The Roma Regional Summit will bring together many prominent Roma rights activists and campaigners from the Western Balkans and Europe to discuss and analyse current human rights issues and trends in the Roma community. They will analyse from country to country the human rights situation of the Roma community, the situation of Roma women as a specifically vulnerable group, and the way regional media report on human rights issues in the Roma community.

The aim of the Roma Regional Summit is to draw attention to the drastic violations of the human rights of the Roma community in the region and to call on the governments of the Western Balkan countries to fully implement international human rights standards.
