We criticise evictions of Roma families

Several Roma families have recently been evicted and denied alternative accommodation, according to our partner Albanian Helsinki Committee.

In a letter to Albanian authorities we demand them to protect families from forced eviction and to respect the right to housing of Roma families.

  • Statements

    We regularly send letters or statements, on our own or together with our partners, to decisions makers in Sweden and around the world, seeking to influence them in human rights matters of our concern.

  • Albania

    We cooperate with professional watchdog organisations that provide legal aid and lobby for legislative changes. Another focus area in Albania is to strengthen media ethics through trainings and by organising debates on the issue of self-regulation.
