" Developments in mediation - current challenges and the role of ROMED"

The training programme for Roma mediators launched in 2011 has certain features which make it unique in terms of the fundamental effects it produces, both in Europe at large and in the member states.

This work sets out to contextualise the initiatives taken, highlight their utility and evaluate them.  It is intended to provide guidance for the programme leaders, enable active participants – trainers, mediators, employers and others – to see their efforts as part of an overall scheme, help policy-makers to take the right decisions and describe and explain the operation to a broader readership.

A propos de ROMED

La médiation est une des mesures utilisées en Europe dans le but de surmonter les inégalités auxquelles sont confrontés les Roms en matière d’accès à l’emploi, aux services de santé et à une éducation de qualité. Elle consiste à faire appel à des personnes issues des communautés roms locales ou ayant une bonne connaissance des questions relatives à cette problématique pour servir de médiateurs entre les Roms et les institutions publiques.
