Key findings

The Committee recommends that the State party intensify its efforts to raise the awareness of the public, civil servants and law enforcement officials of the importance of cultural diversity, tolerance and inter-ethnic understanding in order to combat stereotypes, prejudices and discrimination against refugees, migrants and persons belonging to the Roma, Muslim, Jewish and African communities. The State party should evaluate the effectiveness of its programmes and activities in this area.
