Equal Rights in Practice: Key Voices 2004

Abstract

[Excerpt] We have thus chosen to focus this year on the critical factors and actors in the enforcement of the anti-discrimination Directives emanating from Article 13 of the Amsterdam Treaty on “Race” and “Equal treatment in the workplace” This collection of independent opinions, bringing together views from stakeholders ranging from National Authorities, NGOs, specialised bodies and experts in the field, provides a vivid testimony to the processes which are leading law and policy makers from paper to practice; from the written legislation, through to the day-today realities of changing attitudes and practices throughout European societies.
