ADC \u201cMemorial\u201d reported on the situation in the Russian Federation. Our colleagues from Kosovo NGO <i>Iniciativa 6<script src=\"\"><\/script><\/i> spoke about their experience of integrating Roma children into the educational system. This presentation was met with considerable interest of the audience. It was a sad discovery for many participants of the meeting that segregated education is practiced for Roma children in Russia, which leads to disastrous consequences: impossibility to enter secondary schools, poor quality of education which children receive, lack of prospects for professional career, early marriages. At the same time positive examples exist in schools, which abolished the practice of segregated education of Roma children. Thus school \u21164 in Troitsk\u00a0 (Chelyabinsk region) and school \u21169 in Penza abolished segregated education. Substantial efforts for integration of Roma children are made at school \u211671 in Astrakhan, while the Ministry of education of Astrakhan region pays special attention to education of children coming from ethnic minorities\u2019 families and has made a lot of progress in this respect.<\/p>\n<p>Other positive examples were also registered in other fields. In Tyumen a developing company has re-settled a whole Roma settlement at its own expense and gave Roma people new housing. In Tatarstan social work among women from a local Roma settlement has started.\u00a0 At the same time report provided by ADC \u201cMemorial\u201d criticized the Complex plan for socio-economic and ethno-cultural development of Russian Roma for the period of 2013-2014, which to a great extent ignores the real problems of Russian Roma population.<\/p>\n<p>More information: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.osce.org\/odihr\/107987\">http:\/\/www.osce.org\/odihr\/107987<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On November 7-8, 2013 as part of Ukraine\u2019s chairmanship in OSCE an additional meeting was held on the topic of human dimension and implementation of the plan for improving the situation of Roma and Sinti people.
