Envisioning a Future of Recognition and Self-Governance for the Roma Nation

​

The Global Romani Coalition envisages a future where the Roma Nation is universally recognized and acknowledged by the United Nations, the European Union, and governments worldwide as a legitimate, non-territorial nation. This recognition marks a historic paradigm shift, transcending centuries of marginalization and heralding a new era of empowerment and self-determination for the Roma people.

Our vision is for the Coalition to evolve into an interim government, a representative body that embodies the aspirations and diversity of the Roma community across the globe. This transition signifies the Roma's collective journey from advocacy to governance, laying the foundation for a more equitable and inclusive future.

​

Towards a Global Romani Self-Government:

​

Formation of a Global Electoral System:

​

Develop a comprehensive global election system that enables the Roma community in each country to democratically elect their representatives. This system will be designed to ensure fair representation, taking into account the diverse socio-cultural fabric of the Roma populace.

​

Establishment of Global Romani Self-Government:

​

The elected representatives will form the core of a global Romani self-government, a body that operates beyond territorial confines yet is deeply rooted in the collective identity and shared experiences of the Roma.

This self-government will function as the central authority representing the interests of the Roma, advocating for their rights, and engaging in diplomatic relations with national and international entities.

​

Functioning and Impact:​​​

​

The global Romani self-government will focus on formulating and implementing policies that address the critical needs of the Roma community, including education, healthcare, economic empowerment, and cultural preservation.

It will serve as a platform for negotiating and securing rights for the Roma, including freedom of movement, access to resources, and protection against discrimination.

​

Through active participation in international forums, the self-government will work to influence global policies and initiatives that impact the Roma, ensuring their perspectives and needs are integrated into the global agenda.

​

Facilitating Roma Advancement:

​

The self-government will play a pivotal role in fostering the advancement of the Roma community, supporting initiatives that drive socio-economic development, cultural enrichment, and community cohesion.

It will act as a mediator and advocate in instances of conflict or injustice against the Roma, ensuring that their rights are upheld and their dignity maintained.

​

In this envisioned future, the Roma Nation stands as a beacon of resilience and unity, demonstrating the power of collective will and the impact of self-governance. The Global Romani Coalition, in its role as the precursor to this self-government, commits to paving the way for this transformative vision, uniting the Roma community in their journey towards recognition, representation, and self-determination.
