This session brings together specialists and individuals with lived experience of working with, living with, or being part of Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller (GRT) communities. We will delve into the diverse needs and experiences of these communities, including Irish Travellers, English Gypsies, Eastern European Roma, Live Aboard Boaters, Show People, New Age Travellers, and Van Dwellers.
We will explore GRT equality, disproportionality, specific needs, and barriers, alongside strategies to counteract oppressive practices, myths, and stigma.
