Press Release
Les discriminations à l'encontre des personnes handicapées mentales et des personnes souffrant de troubles mentaux persistent en dépit de la ratification par l'Union européenne et de 21 États membres de la Convention des Nations Unies sur les droits des personnes handicapées (CRDP). Deux nouveaux rapports de la FRA font état d'expériences d'exclusion et de stigmatisation de personnes handicapées mentales et de personnes souffrant de troubles mentaux. Ces rapports soulignent la nécessité de mettre en place des dispositifs pour permettre à ces personnes de vivre en société plutôt que dans des institutions, et de réformer les lois et politiques de manière à les rendre plus inclusives. Ces deux rapports seront présentés lors de la Conférence sur « autonomie et l'inclusion » organisée à Copenhague les 7 et 8 juin 2012.

Press Release
The European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) is publishing results from a survey of 3,000 Muslim and non-Muslim young people about their experiences of and attitudes towards discrimination, social marginalisation and violence. The results indicate that in the three Member States where the survey took place (France, Spain and the United Kingdom) most young people - regardless of their religious background - do not support violence. On the other hand, those young people who have been victims of discrimination or violence are at greater risk of engaging in violence themselves.
