Country reports on measures to combat discrimination

Each year, the European Network of Legal Experts in the field of non-discrimination produces country reports to monitor the transposition and effective implementation of the Racial Equality Directive and the Employment Equality Directive in all 27 Member States, candidate countries (Croatia, FYR of Macedonia and Turkey) and EEA countries (Iceland,.Liechtenstein and Norway).

The European Network of Legal Experts in the field of non-discrimination was set up in order to provide the Commission with independent information and advice on the transposition of the two anti-discrimination directives into national law, their practical implementation, the national initiatives in the field of anti-discrimination legislation and related policy developments, the impact of national court rulings that have the effect of establishing jurisprudence on the level of protection against discrimination provided by national law, the potential conformity of national developments with the requirements of EU law and the impact of judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights on national law.

Country reports are produced as part of a study into measures to combat discrimination in the EU Member States, candidate countries and EEA countries, funded by the European Community Programme for Employment and Social Solidarity - PROGRESS (2007-2013). Please find our country reports here.
