Racial Prejudice and Discrimination in Foster Care – Time for a Change

The project analyzes the situation of Roma children in foster care with the emphasis on ethnicity, discrimination and violations of children’s rights. It is focused on the process of removing children from their families, their placement in different types of institutional care and treatment of Roma children as a specific group of children in the foster care. 

Analytical activities of the project will also address the process of de-institutionalization of the foster care and existing alternative and supporting services pursuing the best interest of the child. 

The project includes advocacy activities and workshops for professionals aimed at developing strategies, specific measures and communication in order to influence public policy making and discourse on Roma children in foster care, eliminate prejudice and potential discrimination.
