Submission to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination concerning Slovakia
In July 2022, we sent a submission to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in which we describe broad range of shortcomings concerning the implementation of the of the UN International Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination by the Slovak government in relation to the Roma minority. Among others, we give attention to ongoing violations of the reproductive rights of Roma women, deficiencies in the investigation of police violence, violations of the right of Roma children to education, deficiencies in access to justice in cases of discrimination or discriminatory impact of the pandemic on disadvantaged Roma.
