Special Eurobarometer 493. Discrimination in the European Union


The Eurobarometer on Discrimination, presented in September 2019, focuses on people’s perceptions, attitudes and opinions on discrimination, based on ethnic origin, skin colour, sexual orientation, gender, age, disability, religion or belief. Overall, it shows that discrimination is perceived to be less widespread than it was according to the 2015 Eurobarometer. However, results still vary widely, depending on the group discriminated against and also from country to country. Discrimination against Roma and Sinti people in Italy is perceived as the highest in the whole of Europe, showing that Antigypsyism is systemic in Italian society.
