We also suggest the need to redefine the nature of health interventions through the lens of reproductive justice . Our research did not identify any published evidence of tailored programs related to this topic. Thus, empowerment interventions needed are not only specifically adapted to the cultural and community characteristics of Roma women, but also include evaluation. In terms of research, a specific focus on Roma women\u2019s reproductive justice is needed in order to begin the task of transforming inequalities.<\/p>\n<h4>What do you suggest other people try out?<\/h4>\n<div class=\"__question__ office-form-question\" data-id=\"re151804f8d0e415e85d11384ec38ceb3\">\n<div class=\"office-form-question-content office-form-theme-focus-border\">\n<div class=\"office-form-question-element\">\n<div class=\"textbox-printview\">Have a mechanism in place for a rapid response \u2013 taking account COVID-19, flexible and willing to adapt without losing sight of the mission.

The Roma girls need a lot of support, both in the form of services and financial aid from private and public authorities, but also recognition and emotional support from their family and community.\r\n\r\nThey need this complex support in order to overcome inequalities and vulnerabilities that lead to worrisome statistics of early school dropout and teenage pregnancies. Teachers and educators, as well as the whole scientific community and private sector representatives, should be encouraged to develop, or at least be part of, mentoring programs designed to help children and their parents on the road to pursue education and fulfill their potential.\r\n\r\nHowever, the Romomatter Project did bring a state of awareness on these issues at least among the project\u2019s direct beneficiaries and helped Roma girls, as pointed out by themselves, to identify their dreams in life and motivated them to further pursue them. It remains to be seen whether these motivational effects will be maintained in the long term, but the odds are that more such projects will be needed in the future.\r\n\r\nThe participants in the Romomatter project in Bulgaria conclude that to empower Roma girls\u2019 mattering linked to reproductive justice they need to feel trusted and supported by their families, community and organizations working within their community. They need to have open and safe space long-term, where they can communicate, socialize and exchange ideas. The girls should be in charge of choosing the topics to be discussed and the activities to be carried out rather than the adults. Their rights to education need to be protected and guaranteed.\r\n<div class=\"question-title-box\">\r\n<h4 id=\"question443-title\" class=\"office-form-question-title\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><a href=\"http:\/\/romomatter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Romomatter-Policy-Brief-VF_12_2020.pdf\">http:\/\/romomatter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Romomatter-Policy-Brief-VF_12_2020.pdf<\/a><\/h4>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"office-form-question-element\"><\/div>","post_title":"RoMOMatteR - Empowering Roma Girls' Mattering through Reproductive Justice","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"romomatter-empowering-roma-girls-mattering-through-reproductive-justice-2","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2022-05-26 15:33:27","post_modified_gmt":"2022-05-26 14:33:27","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/cpip.ucanmakechange2.org\/?p=3076","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3079","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3079"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3079\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3081,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3079\/revisions\/3081"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3079"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3079"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ucanmakechange2.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3079"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
