Având în vedere că 80 % din romii intervievați trăiesc sub pragul riscului de sărăcie al țării lor, că un rom din trei trăiește într-o
locuință fără apă curentă, că un copil rom din trei locuiește într-o gospodărie în care un membru al familiei s-a dus la culcare
flămând cel puțin o dată în ultima lună și că, în educație, copiii romi rămân în urma colegilor lor de altă etnie, acest raport subliniază o realitate tulburătoare, dar inevitabilă: cea mai mare minoritate etnică din Uniunea Europeană continuă să se confrunte
cu discriminarea și accesul inegal la diferite servicii vitale.

Media content and political discourse in EU Member States, whether online or
offline, show incitement to discrimination, hatred or violence on different
grounds, as evidence collected by FRA reveals. The growing reliance on the internet as the main source of
information for many enables the fast spread of often unverified statements
that could also incite to hatred.

Scopul convenției este „să promoveze, să protejeze și să garanteze că toate persoanele cu handicap se bucură de toate drepturile omului și libertățile fundamentale, precum și să promoveze respectul pentru demnitatea lor inerentă”.

Hate crime is the most severe expression of discrimination, and a core fundamental rights abuse. Various initiatives target such crime, but most hate crime across the EU remains unreported and unprosecuted, leaving victims without redress. To counter this trend, it is essential for Member States to improve access to justice for victims. Drawing on interviews with representatives from criminal courts, public prosecutors’ offices, the police, and NGOs involved in supporting hate crime victims, this report sheds light on the diverse hurdles that impede victims’ access to justice and the proper recording of hate crime.

Children with disabilities face significant barriers to enjoying their fundamental rights. They are often excluded from society, sometimes living in facilities far from their families. They are also denied access to basic services, such as health care and education, and endure stigma and discrimination, as well as sexual, physical and psychological violence. FRA scrutinised the important but underreported issue of violence against children with disabilities, carrying out desk research and conducting interviews with knowledgeable stakeholders. This report presents the results of that research.
