Summary/Abstract: Here we examine the decisive role that non-governmental organizations play in fulfilling the sustainable development goals, and more specifically, in the sphere of the fight against racial discrimination of Roma in Europe. I will try to show how non-governmental organizations, thanks to the close relationship that they have with Roma communities, constitute key actors in the fight against discrimination of these groups. In fact, by being able to work as partners with other public and private entities, non-governmental organizations become strategic organizations in the development of programmes with Roma communities, above all at the local level, cognizant of the importance local actions have for achieving the sustainable development goals.
