Main protection concerns regarding displaced minorities  Physical safety and security of displaced minorities. The system of protection in practice is oblivious to the importance of protecting the characteristics of minorities during displacement. Challenges facing these minorities may include, inter alia, violence and xenophobic attacks against them; restrictions on freedom of movement and checkpoints crossing; intimidation and discrimination against them in host communities. Examples: Iraq and Syria  Access to documentation It can be particularly challenging for displaced minorities to obtain documentation or the replacement of lost or destroyed documentation given their status as minorities and as displaced persons. Minorities such as Roma, who already lack civil documentation and birth registration, face disproportionate obstacles in trying to get documentation and to register for instance as IDPs to be considered for humanitarian assistance. Examples: Serbia and Kosovo, Ukraine (Roma IDPs)  Standards of living and access to food, water and sanitation, health care and education Given their extreme vulnerability, displaced minorities face additional challenges in accessing basic services. Due to discrimination and marginalization, or because their specific ways of life are misunderstood, minorities who are displaced often lack proper access to water and sanitation, to culturally appropriate food, to health care and to education. Examples: Serbia and Kosovo (Roma IDPs)  Housing, land and property rights
