The Spanish Race & Ethnic Equality Council launches its website www.igualdadynodiscriminacion.org

2 December 2010

The Spanish Race & Ethnic Equality Council's new website (www.igualdadynodiscriminacion.org) aims to raise awareness on what are the rights of victims of discrimination with special focus on the remedies available to these persons.

The Council has selected two target groups to design the contents of this new digital communication channel: (potential) victims of discrimination and organisations dealing with equality and non-discrimination on grounds of race & ethnic background (NGOs, public administrations, lawyers, etc.).

Visiting this website, one can have access to the following information:

• About the Council: its mission, objectives, members, activities and services.
• What is discrimination, equality and fields of discrimination
• What are the rights of people that have been discriminated
• How and where can people contact the Assessment & Advice Network for victims of discrimination
• The Spanish anti-discrimination legislation on grounds of race & ethnic background
• Who's who: links to the main European and Spanish anti-discrimination public administrations and organisations
• Publications
• News and agenda
