ROMANIA: BILL BANNING SCHOOL SEGREGATION TO GO BEFORE PARLIAMENT
A bill initiated by Cătălin-Zamfir Manea, a member of the Roma Party, will explicitly ban school segregation in Romania. The bill which will soon go before Parliament, has apparently secured all-party support, and will prohibit segregation of children in schools based on race, ethnicity, religion, socio-economic status or disability, with fines for offenders ranging up to 100,000 lei (€20,231).
The bill aims to combat multiple forms of discrimination, it will explicitly target the segregation of Romani students in Romanian schools. According to the explanatory memorandum of the draft law:
“The prohibition of segregation by law brings benefits not only to Romanian citizens of Roma ethnicity, but to the entire Romanian and European society, one of the major benefits being the fact that the school transmits the main moral values, good coexistence, promoting interethnic dialogue and, more chosen to apply the principle of equity in the education system.”
