| Description | The Roma population is reported to have a lower life expectancy in several European countries. The reasons for this are not well described, which limits the development of effective health promotion programs. This report investigates some possible reasons: self-perception of health risks and discrimination in a sample of Czech Roma. The study is a part of a complex health awareness program. |
