Roma are the most vulnerable ethnic minority in many European countries. They have specific social and health vulnerabilities including higher infant mortality and lower life expectancy. Roma's have been consistently marginalized which limit their access to health and social care. In response to this situation different civil society organizations have initiated different Social Accountability programs and community monitoring approaches being focusing on health rights of the Roma Community.
This CoPSAD will share experiences of the Roma civil society organizations from the country of Macedonia and highlight how the Roma organizations have used social accountability programs and legal empowerment approaches to access the health and human rights
