BBC World News - Travellers: A Culture in Crisis

Irish Travellers suffer some of the worst discrimination and poverty in Europe.

According to EU research, Irish Travellers suffer some of the worst discrimination and poverty of any ethnic group in Europe, as Chris Page discovers.

The Travelling community in Ireland say the last socially acceptable form of racism is fuelling a mental health crisis. More than one in ten deaths are suicides. International research has found that Travellers are one of the most discriminated-against ethnic groups in Europe. BBC Ireland Correspondent Chris Page has been hearing from Travellers about how they want to challenge prejudice and save their culture.
