Yhdenvertaisuus, syrjimättömyys ja rasismi

Vuonna 2018 perusoikeuksien suojelussa tapahtui sekä edistystä että vastoinkäymisiä. Euroopan unionin perusoikeusviraston (FRA) vuoden 2019 perusoikeusraportissa tarkastellaan perusoikeuksien tilanteen kehitystä pääpiirteissään ja tuodaan esiin sekä saavutuksia että jäljellä olevia huolenaiheita. Julkaisussa on FRA:n lausuntoja pääasiallisesta kehityksestä käsitellyillä aihealueilla sekä yleiskatsaus lausuntojen perustana olevaan näyttöön.

Despite efforts by the European Union (EU) and its Member States to reduce gender inequalities among citizens of Roma origin, important gender differences persist. Drawing on FRA’s own EU-MIDIS II survey research in nine EU Member States this report highlights the position of Roma women in education, employment and health, as well as the extent to which they experience hate-motivated discrimination, harassment and physical violence.

This paper discusses the evolution of European Court of Human Rights case law relating
to hate crime, providing an update on the most recent rulings. Approaching hate crime

effectively investigate the bias motivation of crimes flows from key human rights
instruments, such as the European Convention on Human Rights.

This report outlines the main findings of FRA’s second survey on Jewish people’s experiences with hate crime, discrimination and antisemitism in the European Union – the biggest survey of Jewish people ever conducted worldwide. Covering 12 EU Member States, the survey reached almost 16,500 individuals who identify as being Jewish. It follows up on the agency’s first survey, conducted in seven countries in 2012.

The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities commits both the EU and all of its Member States to realising the right of persons with disabilities to live independently in the community – which includes achieving deinstitutionalisation for those residing in institutional settings. But much remains to be done to make this a reality in practice. This report presents the main insights gained during fieldwork on the drivers of and barriers to deinstitutionalisation. Focusing on the local level, it gives voice to a diverse set of actors – most importantly, to people with disabilities themselves.

It examines the experiences of almost 6,000 people of African descent in 12 EU Member States.
