Jämlikhet, icke-diskriminering och rasism

År 2018 innebar både framgångar och motgångar för skyddet av de grundläggande rättigheterna. Rapporten om grundläggande rättigheter 2019 från Europeiska unionens byrå för grundläggande rättigheter (FRA) innehåller en granskning av de viktigaste händelserna på området och pekar ut både framsteg och återstående problemområden. I publikationen presenteras FRA:s yttranden om den huvudsakliga utvecklingen på de berörda tematiska områdena, tillsammans med en översikt över bakgrunden till dessa yttranden.

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.

I denna sammanfattning presenteras de huvudsakliga resultaten av FRA:s andra undersökning om judars erfarenheter av hatbrott, diskriminering och antisemitism i EU, som är den största internationella undersökning om judar som någonsin genomförts.

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
from a fundamental rights perspective, it shows how Member State authorities’ duty to
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.

Almost twenty years after adoption of EU laws forbidding discrimination, people of African descent in the EU face widespread and entrenched prejudice and exclusion. This report outlines selected results from FRA's second large-scale EU-wide survey on migrants and minorities (EU-MIDIS II) carried out in 2016. It examines the experiences of almost 6,000 people of African descent in 12 EU Member States.
