    Roma in 10 European Countries - Main results

    This report presents findings from FRA’s 2021 survey on Roma in Croatia, Czechia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Romania and Spain, as well as in North Macedonia and Serbia. The survey includes interviews with more than 8,400 Roma, collecting information on more than 20,000 individuals living in their households. By focusing on Roma, the survey provides unique data and information that are not available from European general population surveys, which do not disaggregate on grounds of ethnic origin. The findings present a bleak but familiar picture of exclusion, deprivation, discrimination and racism.

Fundamental Rights Report 2018

The year 2017 brought both progress and setbacks in terms of rights protection. The European Pillar of Social Rights marked an important move towards a more ‘social Europe’. But, as experiences with the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights underscore, agreement on a text is merely a first step. Even in its eighth year as the EU's binding bill of rights, the Charter's potential was not fully exploited, highlighting the need to more actively promote its use.

Výzvy, jimž čelí organizace občanské společnosti působící v oblasti lidských práv v EU - Shrnutí

Organizace občanské společnosti v Evropské unii hrají klíčovou úlohu při prosazování základních práv, avšak tato činnost je pro ně stále obtížnější z důvodu právních i praktických
omezení. Problémy existují ve všech členských státech EU, jejich přesná povaha a rozsah se však liší. Údaje a výzkum týkající se této problematiky, včetně srovnávacího výzkumu, obecně chybějí.
Zpráva FRA se proto zabývá různými typy a podobami výzev, jimž organizace občanské společnosti působící v oblasti lidských práv v EU čelí. Poukazuje rovněž na slibné postupy,
které by mohly tyto znepokojivé vzorce neutralizovat.

Příručka evropského antidiskriminačního práva. Vydání 2018

Evropské antidiskriminační právo, které tvoří směrnice EU o zákazu diskriminace a článek 14 a protokol č. 12 Evropské úmluvy o ochraně lidských práv a základních svobod, zakazuje diskriminaci v celé řadě situací a z celé řady důvodů. Tato příručka zkoumá evropské antidiskriminační právo vycházející z uvedených dvou zdrojů jako vzájemně se doplňující systémy, využívá jejich vzájemné zaměnitelnosti v míře, v jaké se tyto systémy překrývají, a upozorňuje na jejich rozdíly, pokud existují.

Second European Union Minorities and Discrimination Survey - Main results

Seventeen years after adoption of EU laws that forbid discrimination, immigrants, descendants of immigrants, and minority ethnic groups continue to face widespread discrimination across the EU and in all areas of life – most often when seeking employment. For many, discrimination is a recurring experience. This is just one of the findings of FRA’s second European Union Minorities and Discrimination Survey (EU-MIDIS II), which collected information from over 25,500 respondents with different ethnic minority and immigrant backgrounds across all 28 EU Member States.

Druhé šetření o menšinách a diskriminaci v Evropské unii – Romové – vybrané výsledky

V této zprávě se hovoří o tom, že 80 % dotazovaných Romů žije pod hranicí ohrožení chudobou platnou v dané zemi, každý třetí Rom žije v obydlí bez tekoucí vody, každé třetí romské dítě žije v domácnosti, kde nejméně jednou za poslední měsíc někdo musel jít spát hladový, a že romské děti zaostávají za svými neromskými spolužáky ve vzdělanosti; tato zpráva tak zdůrazňuje zneklidňující, nicméně nevyhnutelný fakt: nejpočetnější etnická menšina v Evropské unii nadále čelí diskriminaci a nerovnému přístupu k některým životně důležitým službám.
