In this letter, Amnesty International, European Roma Centre, Milan Šimečka Foundation, Open Society Institute – Brussels and Roma Education Fund asks that the Slovak government engage proactively and systematically in action to redress patterns of racial discrimination against the Romani minority. In particular, concerted efforts and effective measures are needed to address the problem of systematic erroneous placement of Romani children in schools for children with light mental disabilities as well as the prevalence of other forms of segregated education of Romani.
