Seit der russischen Invasion im Februar 2022 sind zahlreiche ukrainische Rom*nja  auf der Flucht. Angehörigen der Minderheit wird die Ausreise aus der Ukraine aber oft erschwert. Für diejenigen, die es trotzdem schaffen in den vermeintlich sicheren Westen zu fliehen, geht die Diskriminierung aufgrund ihrer ethnischen Zugehörigkeit aber weiter. Dabei sind fehlende Ausweispapiere ein ebenso großes Hindernis wie ungarisch-ukrainische Doppelstaatsbürgerschaften.

Seit der russischen Invasion der Ukraine fliehen nun auch viele Rom*nja in die Nachbarländer, insbesondere nach Moldawien und in die angrenzenden EU-Staaten Tschechien, Ungarn oder Polen.

The more religious diversity increases in Europe, the more the rights of religious or belief minorities (RBMs) need to be mapped and measured. Evidence-based policies that effectively promote the rights of these minorities require tools capable of identifying which rights they enjoy and how much they are promoted in a range of countries across the EU. The Atlas of religious or belief minority rights has developed three indices that measure the promotion of RBM rights, the equal treatment of the RBMs themselves, and the gap which separates these minorities  from religious majorities. This analysis presented some unexpected findings.

Simplistic narrations of Ukraine’s East-West ethno-linguistic divide fail to capture the country’s cultural diversity and the complex interplay between ethnicity and language.

Ethnic and linguistic identity in Ukraine? It’s complicated 

Which claims do migrants as “new” minorities hold, and how do they compare to those held by “old” national minorities? The most obvious approach to answer this question would be to just go and ask them for their opinions, but surprisingly, this has rarely been taken up in scientific studies, which are often conducted about migrants, but not with them. We aimed to address this shortcoming through a quantitative survey and qualitative expert interviews with migrants in Euregio, a  a cross-border region consisting  South Tyrol, Tyrol and Trentino. 

"New" minorities feel at home in their home towns and home region in the Euregio.

South Tyrol, an Autonomous province located in the north of Italy, is among [Europe](https://ec.europa.eu/growth/tools-databases/regional-innovation-monitor/base-profile/bolzano)’s wealthiest regions, and the richest in Italy. 
Bosnia Herzegovina, a former Yugoslav republic, protagonist of one of the most disastrous wars of the modern era, is currently ranked among the world’s ‘hybrid regimes’ and captured-states.
