Summary:	What is the economic rationale for Roma inclusion? This report explores the question: What is the economic argument for Roma inclusion?The analysis is based on quantitative data from Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Romania, and Serbia, and information from interviews with 222 stakeholders in government as well as non-government officials and Roma and non-Roma. Seven household surveys for these four countries provided sufficiently rich information to make the economic calculations. The four countries represent more than two-thirds of Roma in Central and Eastern Europe and the Balkans.
