In the world, women are still in a discriminatory position when it comes to employment, insufficient involvement in political decision-making and governance in government institutions, and data from relevant institutions show that every other woman has experienced some form of violence.

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a major part of this statistic, and when we talk about marginalized groups of women, Roma women are in a much worse position compared to other. Roma women are exposed to multiple discrimination, based on their ethnicity, based on gender and on the basis of their social background or status. For this reason, the Roma Women's Network "USPJEH" has launched the campaign entitled "I have the right to have rights" which is implementing for seven years.

The campaign was created with the aim of highlighting the position of women with special emphasis on Roma women in B&H and the importance of their involvement in the public and political life of our country through a series of activities to be implemented throught this month. In the period from March 8, International Women's Day to April 8, World Roma Day 2018, members of the Network organize a series of activities that include street actions, meetings with representatives of local institutions and community events.

On the International Women's Day (March 8), in town squares in Tuzla, Visoko, Kakanj, Prnjavor and Bijeljina has officially launched campagin with street actions where volunteers shared promotional materials and talked with citizens about the status of Roma women in B&H.

The messages that they want to send this year's campaign are that the Roma women have the right to life without violence, the right to political participation; the right to life without discrimination; the right to life without poverty.
