Welcome to Equinet, the European Network of Equality Bodies

Equality Bodies have been established across the Member States of the European Union to promote equality and to combat discrimination in the areas covered by the EU Equal Treatment Directives. Equinet is the recently established European network for these specialised Equality Bodies.

Navigate through this site to find publications, news and events produced within and beyond Equinet.

Equinet members and Working Groups can also access a dedicated workspace, with more information about our trainings and meetings, a discussion Forum and the documentation library of relevant cases, studies and surveys collected by Equinet members across Europe.
