| description |
Poverty among Roma is closely linked to
four main factors: (i) regional economic conditions; (ii)
the size and concentration of the Roma population in a
settlement; (iii) the share of Roma in a settlement; and
(iv) and the degree of geographic integration or segregation
of the settlement and its proximity to a neighboring village
or town. The situation of Roma in more economically
developed regions is generally more favorable. Within
regions, the level of poverty in a Roma settlement seems to
be closely connected to the level of ethnic integration and
segregation. Conditions in settlements which consist only of
Roma are significantly worse off than more integrated
communities. The most segregated and geographically isolated
settlements are the most economically and socially
disadvantaged. In almost all of the completely segregated
settlements formal unemployment was close to 100 percent.
This report aims to address the gaps in information on Roma
in Slovakia by bringing together existing information on the
living conditions and welfare of Roma and documenting the
conditions of Roma living in settlements. It draws from
quantitative data sources, including data on the labor
market from the Ministry of Family and Social Affairs. In
order to provide a more comprehensive picture of Roma living
in settlements, a qualitative study of Roma was commissioned
for this report. The report is intended to improve
understanding of the situation of Roma in Slovakia and to
facilitate the development of policies and programs to
address their needs. |
