The specific objectives are to raise awareness of the human rights situation of young Roma and to promote a culture of human rights. In this respect, NGOs, institutions and young people promote, initiate, implement and monitor local, regional, national and international actions to fight and prevent human rights violations that affect young Roma.

The expected outcomes relevant to this objective are:

• young people are able to react to human rights violations and become human rights defenders;
• Roma and non-Roma youth organisations are in a position to use a rights-based approach to human rights violations affecting young people;
• the measures and actions implemented are continuously monitored to ensure Roma young people have access to their human rights;
• capacity building efforts for youth organisations, policy-makers and the wider public regarding human rights are continued to enable individuals and groups to react to human rights violations thus promoting a culture of human rights.
