Ensuring the basic human rights of Roma and Egyptian children is a major challenge for many European countries. Committed to the EU integration process, Millennium Development Goals and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Government of Montenegro has pledged to ensure the right of every child to access to quality education. The _*“Study on the Obstacles to Education in Montenegro”_ provides a wide-ranging analysis of the impediments that often keep Roma and Egyptian children out of school. This study is unique as it *uses a framework of analysis that simultaneously reviews all of the key determinants that contribute to Roma and Egyptian exclusion and other co-related aspects of deprivation such as early marriage and inter-generational poverty. These determinants have been identified through global and regional studies on similar forms of social exclusion and disparity in the education sector. The main aim of this study is to provide a comprehensive analysis of Roma and Egyptian children and the obstacles to their inclusion in quality compulsory education. The study will analyze existing legislation and policies in the area of education, education budget and expenditure, coordination mechanisms between relevant institutions, availability of essential commodities for learning, infrastructure, cultural norms and beliefs, and quality of education and existing services. The report aims to review all of the major determinants or causal factors that any government would face in addressing the exclusion of vulnerable groups. For this purpose, a set of 10 major determinants and factors has been compiled from global and regional studies on exclusion and this determinant analysis is the framework of analysis used in the study.
