Welcome to the FRA InfoPortal

The InfoPortal provides online access to relevant information and data in the fields of Fundamental Rights in context of the European Union and its Member States. At the moment the Infoportal holds a sizeable collection of writing on racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism and related intolerances. Its scope will be widened as resources allow and it will be regularly updated on recent developments and trends in the field of Fundamental Rights.

INFOBASE

The FRA InfoBase is presenting overview information on racism, xenophobia and related intolerances in the European Union and its Member States. At the moment five main areas are covered: the legal panorama, including information on anti-discrimination legislation, racist violence and crime, the situation of migrants and minorities regarding employment, education and housing. Over the time, more and more information and data on recent developments in the area of Fundamental Rights in the European Union and its Members are going to be added.

CASE LAW

The tool, useful for justice practitioners, politicians and policymakers, provides a comprehensive compilation of leading case law on discrimination on grounds of racial and ethnic origin and on grounds of sexual orientation in the EU Member States. It contains “landmark court decisions”, but also decisions of Special Bodies or similar institutions. In the future, due to the extension of FRA’s thematic areas and as resources allow, a broader data of case law on Human Rights in the EU and its Member States will be built up.

organisations

ORGANISATIONS

In this section, Organisations addressing various aspects on combating racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism and islamophobia in the EU and its Member States can be found. The resulting information has been assembled by RAXEN and FRALEX networks and has the general public, politicians, policymakers and civil society as its target groups. As well as the other sections of this portal, the idea is to have in the future a compilation of key organisations working on fundamental rights and various aspects of discrimination in the EU and its member states.

BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES

The publications section of the InfoPortal contains publications and continuously updated reports and publications periodicals on fundamental rights and discrimination in the European Union and EU Member States and bibliographical references on relevant publications in the field. It is designed mainly to help researchers and justice practitioners through accurate and comprehensive data. Over time, more information will be added, as FRA continues to expand and grow, and will include a broader selection of publications in these areas.
