Joint event
FRA, in cooperation with the European Network of Equality Bodies (Equinet) will run a capacity-building workshop on 10 November on unlawful profiling. The workshop seeks to invite national equality bodies to jointly reflect on their roles in stepping up efforts to better combat unlawful police profiling.

The workshop will contextualise the subject of unlawful profiling. It will be based on recent global developments and the EU Anti-Racism Action Plan, which highlights the necessity to uplift the role of equality bodies. The workshop will look into emerging practices, building on networking, awareness raising and capacity building. Presentations by FRA, Equinet, national equality bodies and civil society organisations with experience in the concrete actions will feed the discussions on how to best step up joint efforts and effectively establish effective synergies.
