International audienceMany Romanians doctors leave their country to work abroad. In France, Romanian doctors contribute to alleviate the problems of medical demography, ie the lack of doctors in many remote rural areas, and also in hospitals and in some medical specialties. On the other hand, these migrations increase difficulties for the provision of medical services in Romania. These migrations take place in the current development of a global market for medical personnel which has negative consequences in many developing countries. The WHO recommendations in migratory policies are limited to the scale of ethics and are not enough to enable a regulation of these migration flows.Les professionnels de santé roumains sont nombreux à partir exercer à l’étranger. En France, leur présence contribue à atténuer les problèmes de démographie médicale. En revanche, cet exode aggrave les difficultés du système sanitaire roumain. Ces migrations s’inscrivent dans un marché mondial des personnels médicaux en cours de constitution défavorable à la Roumanie comme à beaucoup de pays en développement ou en transition. Les incitations de l’OMS pour une éthique des politiques migratoires ne sont pas suffisantes pour réguler les flux

Given the current policies of the Western European countries on the repatriation of Roma population and subsidies granting to those who return to the country of origin, increasingly more Romanian citizens of Roma ethnicity view migration as an economic opportunity. The present study has at its basis the research conducted on Roma immigrants of Romanian origin in the city of Rennes, France, between March and June 2015. The interview-based survey was conducted on a sample of 50 participants of Roma ethnicity, originating from different areas of Romania, and is aimed at analyzing the attitudes of Romanian Roma immigrants towards the local authorities: local administration, school, hospital, NGOs. The research results suggest a positive perception of Roma population directed towards certain local stakeholders, such as the NGOs, hospital and school, as well as certain reluctance towards the local administration. The problems faced by the Roma community members in Rennes are linked to the attitude of local stakeholders towards immigrants, the difficulties of insertion in the work environment and social exclusion issues. Despite the difficulties they face, the most interviewees expressed no desire of return to Romania, except for the situation in which they would be repatriated by the French State. Their migration project is based upon the intention of remaining in France for a number of years, or of migrating to another developed country in Western Europe. The situation of Roma immigrants is highly sensitive, both for France and for the other Western European countries. Since 2000, many NGOs have focused their work on helping these communities illegally settled in France. This study represents a first contribution to a larger research project, focused on the analysis of the Roma community in the city of Rennes in particular and of Roma minorities of Romanian nationality in France, and generally follows the causes that have contributed to increased migration, migration experience and routes within the Roma population.
