We were pleased to be included in training last week on Traveller and Roma Rights facilitated by the Irish Traveller Movement and the Council of Europe. The training was conducted principally by Nuala Mole of the Advice on Individual Rights in Europe Centre (AIRE Centre) and David Joyce BL, with valuable contributions from representatives of the Irish Traveller Movement Independent Law Centre and the European Network Against Racism. The training provided a very useful overview of the relevant standards set by the European Convention on Human Rights and in particular recent caselaw on Roma and Traveller rights. We are representing several clients from the Roma and Traveller Community particularly on housing and social welfare matters and found the training helpful to ensure our approach to these matters takes into account recent developments in European law and policy.
