As per implementation of the Law on Protection from Discrimination and opportunities of resolving situations based on discrimination for these communities, the Ombudsperson considers of a great importance having this round table because it will provide good opportunity of joint deliberations among the Ombudsperson, Public institutions at the central and local level, NGOs which are directly involved on protection and promotion of rights of Roma, Ashkali and Egyptian communities in Kosovo.

Ombudsperson’s expectation is that particular recommendations will be announce by the end of this round table, that a part of our society, comprised of this community, is treated without discrimination in all spheres of life and in accordance with the law.
