Long term response • • • • Governments should implement compulsory training around class, race and immigration status biases which act as barriers to marginalised communities accessing their right to healthcare Governments should also put diplomatic pressure on other governments to address discrimination Local organisations should coordinate their advocacy towards governments on ending racial discrimination and antigypsyism Stateless/Roma communities should organise and deliver education programmes for younger generations on anti-discrimination and anti-gypsyism where those with experience share their stories 3. Ensure stateless people have access to information Immediate response • Local governments should provide either financial support for stateless people to buy the technology they need, or the technology itself, such as laptops, internet access, or smartphones • Governments or NGOs should provide a free hotline for stateless people who need support, advice, signposting, or someone to talk to. NGOs should also provide information that is accessible to everyone and reach out through established networks and links with communities to identify people who need help. Long term response • Governments should invest in developing culturally sensitive, accessible and translated advice and information about services available to stateless communities and provide signposting to these services. They should collaborate with community organisations to co-produce materials so that they can do health promotion within their own communities, and involve stateless people as translators and cultural mediators. • Governments should invest in wider initiatives to support stateless people to connect online and provide computer literacy programmes in different languages 4. Address barriers to legal procedures and free legal support Immediate response • NGOs should try to address any barriers to providing advice remotely to stateless people. Lawyers and advice providers should offer pro-bono help online to stateless people and charities. • Governments should provide temporary identification documents for stateless people during the crisis and stop immigration enforcement for the duration of the pandemic Long term response • Governments should take this as an opportunity to review and simplify the rules for accessing and applying to immigration/asylum procedures and make legal aid available for stateless people to resolve their status. 4
