Each year thousands of children take part in criminal and civil judicial proceedings, affected by parental divorce
or as victims or witnesses to crime. Such proceedings can be stressful for anyone. The European Union Agency
for Fundamental Rights (FRA) investigated whether children’s rights are respected in these proceedings.
Les enfants ont besoin d'être entendus et d’être impliqués dans toutes les questions qui les concernent. Cela inclut le système de la justice.
FRA in close cooperation with the European Commission and the Academic Network of European Disability Experts (ANED), developed 28 human rights indicators to assess the political participation of persons with disabilities in the EU.

The rights of victims of crime to access justice and to be protected against repeat victimisation may remain illusory in practice if the victim fails to receive professional advice and support. This research by the European Union Agency
for Fundamental Rights (FRA) examines support service provision for such victims across the 28 EU Member States, in line with the 2012 EU Victims’ Directive. It focuses not on abstract fundamental rights standards but on the final
practical results.

Trans persons, or those whose gender identity and/or gender expression differs from the sex assigned them at birth, face frequent discrimination, harassment and violence across the European Union (EU) today. This reality triggers fears that persuade many to hide or disguise their true selves. This report examines issues of equal treatment and discrimination on two grounds, namely sexual orientation and gender identity. It analyses data on the experiences of 6,579 trans respondents from the EU Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) survey, the largest body of empirical evidence of its kind to date.

L’Union européenne (UE) et ses États membres ont pris une série de mesures importantes en 2013 pour protéger et
promouvoir les droits fondamentaux : endosser de nouveaux engagements internationaux, réorganiser la législation,
poursuivre des politiques novatrices sur le terrain. Pourtant, les violations des droits fondamentaux ont fréquemment saisi
les medias : les noyades de candidats à l’immigration au large des côtes de l’UE, une surveillance de masse sans précédent,
des meurtres motivés par le racisme et l’extrémisme, la pauvreté des enfants et le dénuement des Roms.
