The Mayor of Municipality Shtip, Blagoj Bochvarski sends greeting on the occasion of International Roma Day-8th of April, to all the members of the Roma Community.
„On my behalf and on behalf of the Municipality of Shtip I congratulate the International Roma Day-8th of April to all our Roma community members. Shtip is proclaimed the most friendly Roma Municipality, which shows that it can be the true road to building one community for all.
In the recent period, we invest many funds for the development of projects for communal infrastructure in the settlement where Roma people live. With these investments and projects we are reducing the gap in the quality of housing among Roma and non-Roma communities in the Republic of North Macedonia. In this way, all parts of the municipality are connected and promoted thus enabling a balanced development and elimination of ghettos and isolation processes targeting only a minority group and only selected territories. Services of the institutions are equally accessible to all. Therefore it is especially important for our entire collective to reach satisfactory conditions that will ensure a better quality of life of Roma people in all of the urban settlements. We as a local authority are involved directly in overcoming the problems and prejudices which the citizens of the Roma community are facing and will provide all rights and obligations that are guaranteed by the Constitution of the Republic of North Macedonia. We are on the right track. Let us take a glance together to achieve our goals for an inclusive community where every factor has a safe home and community, as a part of the preconditions for a peaceful and dignified life for all. Congratulate on the celebration of the International Roma Day-8th of April,” says the greeting by Mayor Bochvarski.
