Roma Holocaust Memorial Day 2022: joint statement
On Roma Holocaust Memorial Day, 2 August 2022, we remember with sombreness the tragic genocide of hundreds of thousands of Europe?s Roma people.
Sadly, in 2022 the seeds of racist ideologies are still being planted and cultivated. These ideologies are not just wrong but dangerous, and they must be uprooted and replaced with a culture of equality and respect for human dignity. Diversity is not simply something to be tolerated but rather celebrated as a strength and an advantage for all.
We add our voices to those who condemn xenophobia, discrimination, and racism in all its forms and stand with the individuals and communities that have been harmed by ideologies of hate and division.
