Les droits fondamentaux des citoyens sont menacés dans toute l’Europe. Selon le rapport sur les droits fondamentaux 2024 de la FRA, l’augmentation des niveaux de pauvreté, les menaces persistantes contre la démocratie, la généralisation du racisme et les défis liés à la migration expliquent ce constat. Ces menaces montrent à quel point il est nécessaire d’assurer une protection forte et durable des droits fondamentaux dans l’ensemble de l’UE, en particulier pour les personnes en situation de vulnérabilité. Le rapport propose des pistes pour que les décideurs politiques et la société civile œuvrent de concert à contrer la menace que constitue l’exclusion sociale et à créer les conditions d’une société plus équitable et plus juste pour tous.
