CERV-2026-CITIZENS-REM-GENCRIME-1 - Priority 1: Strengthening the remembrance of Roma victims

The genocide of Roma and Sinti under Nazi rule, known as Porajmos or Samudaripen, is a defining yet insufficiently recognized legacy for the European Union. An estimated 500,000 Roma, including Sinti and Travellers, were murdered, and countless others were persecuted, deported, forcibly sterilized, and subjected to inhuman treatment. The Nazi regime implemented racial policies aimed at the systematic destruction of Roma communities across Europe, culminating in mass killings such as the liquidation of the Roma camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau on 2 August 1944, now commemorated as European Roma Holocaust Memorial Day.

Vollständigen Text lesen

The Roma Holocaust must be understood within a longer continuum of antigypsyism in Europe. Roma were enslaved for nearly five centuries in the territories of present-day Romania, deprived of legal personhood and basic rights. In the 20th century, persecution continued under fascist and communist regimes and, in several countries, through forced sedentarisation, assimilation policies, and coercive practices including forced sterilizations. These historical injustices have had lasting socio-economic consequences.

Despite this, Roma persecution remains underrepresented in school curricula, museums, and public memorials. Dedicated research centres, permanent monuments, and teaching materials on Roma history and the Roma Holocaust are limited. This structural invisibility contributes to persistent antigypsyism, distortion, and denial.

As survivor numbers decline, preserving testimonies, memorial sites, and archival materials becomes increasingly urgent. Commemorative initiatives such as 2 August – European Roma Holocaust Memorial Day – and 16 May – Romani Resistance Day require stronger institutional support and integration into European remembrance culture.

Current political developments also demonstrate the vulnerability of Roma Holocaust memory. Historical distortion, trivialization, and denial — often intertwined with broader antigypsyist narratives — undermine democratic values. Memory competition and selective recognition of victimhood risk reinforcing exclusion. Citizens must be empowered to counter distortion, denial, and the minimization of the Roma genocide. In line with the EU Roma Strategic Framework for Equality Inclusion and Participation 2020-2030, special priority will be given to projects that strengthen Roma Holocaust remembrance while addressing the deeper roots of antigypsyism.
