Description: "Turkey's Roma population and similar social groups such as Abdal have long been among the country's most marginalized communities. Despite being guaranteed in both domestic and international law, in practice for many Roma the right to education and housing remain out of reach: however, limited data on the disparities and discrimination they face has contributed to their continued invisibility in public life. Ignored and Unequal: Roma Access to the Right to Housing and Education in Turkey provides a detailed overview of the challenges facing these communities and the ways forward for these issues to be addressed.." -- Minority Rights Group International web site.
