which are constituted in the interplay of national and
international Roma policy processes and Nordic collaboration (see
Helakorpi,
Lappalainen and Mietola, <a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00029" title="Equality in the Making? Roma and Traveller Minority Policies and Basic Education in Three Nordic Countries">2020</a>).
However, in the Nordic countries there are no national statistics based on <a></a>ethnic
or racial <a></a>identification since the population level statistics are
based on register data in which <a></a><a></a>information
on ethnic and racial identification is not included. No censuses
have been gathered in these countries in decades. Thus, the
overall descriptions of the situation of Roma and Travellers are
based on estimations and small-scale surveys. However, there
are little or no reliable numerical population level estimations.
Nevertheless, it is estimated that the completion of basic
education and attainment to upper secondary education is
distinctively lower in comparison with the rest of the population
(Rajala et al., <a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00049" title="Romanioppilaiden perusopetuksen tilannekatsaus 2010–2011 ja toimenpide-ehdotukset">2011</a>; Hagatun, 2019; <a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00045" title="Assimilering og motstand Norsk politikk overfor taterne/romanifolket fra 1850 til i dag">NOU, 2015</a>; SOU, <a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00052" title="Romers rätt – en strategi för romer i Sverige.

In addition,
the current view is that the number of Roma and Travellers
participating or having completed higher education (HE) is significantly
smaller than the national averages (<a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00003" title="Roma, Education, and Higher Education Policies: The International Context and the Case of Sweden">Alexiadou and Norberg,

The social dimension of HE has been
firmly expressed in European policy declarations for over a
decade. It rests on the idea that students accessing, participating
in and completing HE at all levels should reflect the diversity of
populations (London <a href="https://www.bloomsburycollections.com/book/the-roma-in-european-higher-education-recasting-identities-re-imagining-futures/ch8-higher-education-in-nordic-roma-and-traveller-policy-documents-analysing-silences#b-9781350109667-BLO-CH008_CIT00036" title="Towards the European Higher Education Area: Responding to Challenges in a Globalised World">Communiqué, 2007</a>).
The main purpose of this social agenda is to make HE institutions more inclusive and to widen access to the <a></a>social privileges that HE offers.</p> | |
