Resolving such cases can be a long, bureaucratic and often expensive process that may take up to a year. Problems related to civil registration are perpetuated when children are born to parents with no valid documents. Persons excluded from civil registration do not have their identity recognized by the legal system and are unable to execute legally valid acts. They are likely to be excluded from the exercise of rights and obligations. The lack of official identity and other personal documents is an obstacle for Roma and marginalized groups to get access to realization of rights. For instance, inappropriate medical identification is often leading to incomplete vaccination coverage, particularly for children.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[post_gallery]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The project is emphasizing the services to the Romani population in Macedonia, to address the urgent and unmet need for assistance in civil and personal registration in obtaining personal documents.
