Paragraph text
The Finnish Ombudsman conducted a research study to identify the key issues facing Roma communities in Finland. The survey was a response to the identified lack of data on discrimination experienced by Roma. Better data is expected to enable national authorities to intervene more effectively in cases of discrimination experienced by Roma, to help them formulate concrete proposals for action to reduce the discrimination Roma face in various aspects of life, and to improve the position of Roma within society.
