Objectives
ERGO Network’s key objectives are:
• To offer members an effective channel for information provision and exchange on relevant political and policy developments and a platform to communicate, network and share expertise among them and with other organisations, policy makers, scientists and other stakeholders.
• To facilitate capacity building of independent ‘watch dog’ organisations, networks and groups and to strengthen the impact of their actions within common programmes and initiatives targeted at achieving better policy outcomes.
• To advocate at European level for accessible and effective inclusion policies and the recognition of equal citizenship for Roma towards governments, EU institutions, international organisations and the private sector.
Approach
ERGO Network provides its members know-how and facilities that support, enable and strengthen their activities and enables them to express the voice of grassroots Roma individuals and communities. This mutually raises the value of the network as a whole.
ERGO Network in particular aims to facilitate capacity building of ‘watchdog’ organizations and networks that monitor policies, put crucial issues on the political agenda, formulate solutions and stir public debate at local, regional and national level.
ERGO Network’s two-way chain of information brings experiences on the (lack of) impact of Roma inclusion policies from the local level to the national and European level – and ensures knowledge of relevant European and national policies at grassroots level. Benefiting from their connections in ERGO Network, member organisations can use this knowledge in their advocacy towards municipalities and governments.
