Racism in the police can include discriminatory racial profiling practices through to excessive use of force. Incidents like these highlight deeper systemic issues that need addressing. Many in society are affected by racism in policing, not only the individuals or communities targeted. Lack of trust in policing can fuel social exclusion and damages the foundations of a fair and equal society, however promising practices are developing to address these issues. This is the first EU-wide report on racism in policing. FRA’s findings identify gaps in regulatory frameworks and propose concrete steps for action.
FRA's first Being Black in the EU report exposed widespread and entrenched racism against people of African descent in Europe. Now updated with new data, this report revisits the situation revealing persistent racial discrimination, harassment and violence. Overall, experiences of racial discrimination increased in the EU countries since 2016, reaching as high as 77%. The lack of progress is alarming despite binding anti-discrimination law in the EU since 2000 and significant EU policy developments since then.
Antisemitic incidents and hate crimes violate fundamental rights, especially the right to human dignity, the right to equality of treatment and the freedom of thought, conscience and religion. This report provides an overview of available data on antisemitism as recorded by official and unofficial sources in the EU Member States and in Albania, North Macedonia and Serbia. The data provided by the countries are supplemented with information from international organisations.

This paper presents statistical survey data for the EU on how often people are stopped by the police, in what kind of situations they are stopped, the action taken by the police during stops, and views on whether or not the police acted respectfully.
Antisemitism can be expressed in the form of verbal and physical attacks, threats, harassment, discrimination and unequal treatment, property damage and graffiti or other forms of speech or text, including on the internet. Antisemitic incidents and hate crimes violate fundamental rights, especially the right to human dignity, the right to equality of treatment and the freedom of thought, conscience and religion.
Denne rapport beskriver udvalgte resultater fra FRA’s anden store EU-dækkende undersøgelse af migranter og mindretal (EU-MIDIS II). Den undersøger erfaringerne fra næsten 6 000 personer af afrikansk herkomst i 12 EU-medlemsstater. Resultaterne viser, at snart tyve år efter vedtagelsen af EU’s lovgivning om forbud mod forskelsbehandling møder personer af afrikansk herkomst i EU udbredte og rodfæstede fordomme og udstødelse.
Menschen afrikanischer Abstammung stoßen EU-weit auf ausgeprägte und tief sitzende Vorurteile und Ausgrenzung. Rassendiskriminierung
und rassistisch motivierte Belästigung
sind an der Tagesordnung. Die Erfahrungen mit rassistisch
motivierter Gewalt nehmen unterschiedliche
Formen an, betreffen jedoch immerhin 14 %.
Diskriminierendes Profiling durch die Polizei gehört
ebenfalls zum Alltag. Die Hindernisse, die einer Integration
im Weg stehen, sind vielfältig, insbesondere
dann, wenn es um die Suche nach Arbeitsplätzen
und Wohnraum geht.
Across the EU, people of African descent face widespread and entrenched prejudice and exclusion. Racial discrimination and harassment are commonplace. Experiences with racist violence vary, but reach as high as 14 %. Discriminatory profiling by the police is a common reality. Hurdles to inclusion are multi-faceted, particularly when it comes to looking for jobs and housing.
Tässä raportissa esitellään yhteenveto Euroopan unionin perusoikeusviraston (FRA) toisesta laajamittaisesta EU:n laajuisesta maahanmuuttajia ja vähemmistöjä koskevasta kyselytutkimuksesta (EU-MIDIS II). Siinä tarkastellaan lähes 6 000 afrikkalaistaustaisen henkilön kokemuksia EU:n 12 jäsenvaltiossa. Tulokset osoittavat, että EU:ssa asuvat afrikkalaistaustaiset henkilöt kärsivät laajamittaisista ja sitkeistä ennakkoluuloista ja syrjäytymisestä vielä lähes 20 vuotta EU:n
syrjinnänvastaisen lainsäädännön hyväksymisen jälkeen
Partout dans l’UE, les personnes d’ascendance
africaine doivent faire face à des préjugés
largement répandus et fermement ancrés
ainsi qu’à l’exclusion. La discrimination et le harcèlement
à caractère racial sont monnaie courante.
Le taux d’expériences de violence raciste varie, mais
atteint jusqu’à 14 %. Le profilage discriminatoire par
la police est une réalité commune. Les obstacles
à l’inclusion prennent de multiples formes, particulièrement
lorsqu’il s’agit de chercher un emploi
et un logement.
La presente relazione illustra i risultati selezionati della seconda indagine su larga scala dell’Agenzia su migranti e minoranze (EU-MIDIS II), esaminando le esperienze di quasi 6 000 persone
di origine africana in 12 Stati membri dell’UE. I risultati mostrano che, quasi vent’anni dopo l’adozione di leggi dell’UE che vietano la discriminazione, le persone di origine africana nell’UE si
trovano ad affrontare pregiudizi ed esclusione diffusi e radicati.
Dan ir-rapport jiddeskrivi fil-qosor xi riżultati magħżula mit-tieni stħarriġ tal-FRA fuq skala kbira
madwar l-UE rigward il-migranti u l-minoranzi (EU-MIDIS II). Huwa jeżamina l-esperjenzi ta’
kważi 6,000 persuna ta’ dixxendenza Afrikana fi 12-il Stat Membru tal-UE. Ir-riżultati juru li,
kważi għoxrin sena wara l-adozzjoni ta’ liġijiet tal-UE li jipprojbixxu d-diskriminazzjoni, persuni

O presente relatório apresenta resultados selecionados do segundo inquérito da FRA realizado
em grande escala na UE sobre migrantes e minorias (EU-MIDIS II). Analisa as experiências de
quase 6 000 afrodescendentes em 12 Estados-Membros da UE. Os resultados demonstram que,
quase 20 anos após a adoção de leis da UE que proíbem a discriminação, os afrodescendentes
na UE ainda são alvo de preconceito e exclusão generalizados e enraizados.
I rapporten beskrivs utvalda resultat från FRA:s andra stora EU-undersökning av migranter och
minoriteter (EU-Midis II). I rapporten undersöks erfarenheterna hos nästan 6 000 personer av
afrikansk härkomst i tolv EU-medlemsstater. Resultaten visar att personer av afrikansk härkomst utsätts för allmänt utbredda och inrotade fördomar och utestängning i EU, nästan 20 år
efter antagandet av EU-lagstiftning som förbjuder diskriminering.
This annual overview provides an update of the most recent figures on antisemitic incidents, covering the period 1 January 2008 – 31 December 2018, across the EU Member States, where data are available. It includes a section that presents evidence from international organisations. In addition, for the first time, it provides an overview of how Member States that have adopted or endorsed the non-legally binding working definition of antisemitism adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) (2016) use or intend to use it.
FRA’s second EU Minorities and Discrimination survey (EU-MIDIS II) collected information from over 25,000 respondents with different ethnic minority and immigrant backgrounds across all 28 EU Member States. The main findings from the survey, published in 2017, pointed to a number of differences in the way women and men with immigrant backgrounds across the European Union (EU) experience how their rights are respected. This report summarises some of the most relevant survey findings in this regard, which show the need for targeted, gender-sensitive measures that promote the integration of – specifically – women who are immigrants or descendants of immigrants.
В настоящото ръководство се обяснява какво представлява профилирането, правните рамки, които го регулират и защо правомерното извършване на профилиране е необходимо за спазването на основните права и е от решаващо значение за ефективната дейност на полицейските и граничните органи. В ръководството също така са предоставени практически насоки за това как да се избегне неправомерно профилиране при операции на полицейските и граничните органи.
Tento průvodce vysvětluje, co je to profilování, jaké právní rámce je upravují a proč je zákonné provádění profilování jednak nezbytné pro dodržování základních práv a jednak klíčové pro účinný výkon činnosti policie a činnosti v oblasti správy hranic. Tento průvodce rovněž poskytuje praktické pokyny k tomu, jak předcházet nezákonnému profilování v činnosti policie a v oblasti správy hranic.
I denne vejledning forklares, hvad der forstås ved profilering, de retlige rammer, der regulerer profilering, og hvorfor det er både nødvendigt at foretage profilering lovligt for at overholde de grundlæggende rettigheder og afgørende for et effektivt politiarbejde og en effektiv grænseforvaltning. Vejledningen indeholder også praktiske retningslinjer om, hvordan ulovlig profilering kan undgås i forbindelse med politi- og grænseforvaltningsoperationer.
