The European Roma and Travellers Forum (ERTF) is an international Roma organisation which brings together Roma NGOs from all over Europe. Established in 2004, its aim is to "to promote the effective exercise by the populations mentioned in Article 1.2 [Roma, Sinti, Kal? Travellers and related groups] of all human rights and fundamental freedoms as protected by the legal instruments of the Council of Europe and other international legal instruments where applicable. It shall promote the struggle against racism and discrimination and facilitate the integration of these populations into the European societies and their participation in public life and in the decision-making process." (Art. 2.1. of the Forum's statutes) The Forum is unique not only in the size and geographic distribution of its participants. It is also special in that it brings together representatives of several ethnic Roma groups such as Kelderas, Lovara, Sinti, Kale, Beas, Jenish, Resande, Pavees/Travellers, and more than twenty others. It is the only international Roma and Travellers organization which unites NGOs, political parties, religious institutions and other types of leadership in one organisational structure. A partnership agreement with the Council of Europe conveys the Forum a privileged relation with this institution and the possibility to take an active part in its work. The Forum aims to establish similarly close relations with other international organisations, in particular, with the EU institutions, the OSCE, and the UN. The Forum is based on the principle of representative democracy where national umbrella organisations and international Roma NGOs select their delegates who represent their interests at the plenary assembly in Strasbourg. Their decisions are enacted by the Executive Committee and the Forum's President who sets the guidelines of the Forum's work. The Forum's Secretariat is located in Strasbourg within the premises of the Council of Europe. It ensures the daily run of the Forum's activities and supports the President in his work.
