ReFIT - Social Participation through Participatory Approaches and Examples of Antiziganism as an Educational Barrier from Practice

In Baden-Württemberg, a permanent structure for individuals who identify as part of the Sinti and Roma minority was established through the state treaty between the state and minority representation with the consultation center for equal participation. Members of the minority thus received a point of contact where they did not have to fear discrimination due to their affiliation. The trust advance that the consultation center was given by those seeking advice can be considered a crucial prerequisite for good cooperation. Discrimination as an educational barrier is illustrated using some examples from the consultation work.
