École obligatoire : la scolarisation des enfants Roms à l'école élémentaire Marie Curie de Bobigny, France

L’école de la République permet de maintenir ou ce créer ce lien social et certaines familles l’ont bien compris.

Breaking the Law: Stories of Roma Discrimination in Czech Schools

Over a year ago, a group of colleagues from Amnesty International and I started field research into discrimination of Romani children in Czech primary schools. We aimed to get an in-depth understanding of the daily reality beyond the official statistics (in Czech) which persistently show that over a third of pupils in schools and classes for children with mild mental disabilities are Roma. In addition, we also wanted to examine the situation of Roma in mainstream schools.

Must Try Harder - Ethnic Discrimination of Romani Children in Czech Schools

This report documents how the the Czech authorities are violating the human rights of Romani children in schools across the country. Romani children in the Czech Republic have for decades suffered systemic discrimination in primary education. Many are placed in so-called practical schools designated for pupils with mild mental disabilities. Those in mainstream schools are often segregated in Roma-only schools and classes or otherwise treated differently.

In recent years the number of students whom organizations under the supervision and control of the Iranian regime has banned or “starred” from education has increased dramatically.
