"The Commission designated 2007 as the Year of Equal Opportunities. Disadvantaged groups must be given a more significant role in the media in order to facilitate their integration.
The largest ethnic minority in Europe are the approximately 15 million Roma people, who form one of the most disadvantaged social groups of the Member States. At the same time, the culture of the Roma enriches and fertilises the social and cultural life of European countries and makes it more colourful.
The media has a prominent role in the equal opportunity society. Disadvantaged groups, including the Roma, must be given more opportunities to appear in the media, to an extent that reflects their significance; new media suitable for this purpose must be created and used, and all of this must be supported by EU financial assistance.
We must encourage public media to promote understanding between cultures. The Roma minority, present in all European countries, must be effectively supported in their media appearances, in their integration process and in the preservation of their cultural values. The formulation and implementation of European and local strategies required to achieve this must support the recent steps taken to set up the Pan-European Roma TV."@en1
