Neatkariga prints an article with the head of the Roma Association in Latvia Normunds Rudevics. According to him, integration approach used for Roma is not effective because Roma people do not want to be put in the so-called “frame.” N.Rudevics believes that Roma are freelancers, they think and live differently and understand differently what they are living for. Therefore, there is huge unemployment level among Roma and small number gets educated. The integration model proposed by N.Rudevics is called “XXI Century Tabor” which provides a solution for all the areas – housing, health, education etc. As reported, Mr Rudevics elaborated a draft project on establishment of Roma villages inLatvia where Roma would live and work.
