===== Definition ===== 

Roma segregation refers to the systematic discrimination and marginalization of the Roma community, also known as the Romani people or Gypsies. The Roma are an ethnic minority in Europe who have historically faced prejudice, stigma, and social exclusion.

Roma segregation can be seen in various aspects of life, including housing, education, employment, and public services. In many countries, Roma communities are often forced to live in isolated and impoverished neighborhoods, with inadequate access to basic amenities such as clean water, electricity, and sanitation.

In terms of education, Roma children often face barriers to accessing quality schooling. They may be disproportionately placed in separate schools or classes for children with special needs, which further perpetuates their marginalization and limits their educational opportunities.

Employment discrimination is another form of Roma segregation. Many Roma individuals face limited access to decent and stable job opportunities, leading to high rates of unemployment and poverty within the community.

Additionally, Roma individuals often experience discrimination and prejudice in healthcare, justice systems, and other public services. They may be subjected to racial profiling, police harassment, and inadequate access to healthcare services.

Efforts have been made by both national governments and international organizations to combat Roma segregation and promote social inclusion. However, progress has been slow, and there is still a long way to go in achieving equal treatment and opportunities for Roma individuals.
