The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), will publish its new annual report. It outlines, inter alia, key trends and challenges in the fight against racism and intolerance in Council of Europe’s member states in 2023, such as those related to addressing the situation of people displaced by war and other emergencies, to countering the rise of antisemitism in Europe as a result of the current conflict in the Middle East, as well as to taking resolute action against anti-Muslim racism and discrimination across Europe.
The Chair of ECRI Bertil Cottier (from Switzerland) and Executive Secretary of ECRI Johan Friestedt will present the annual report and respond to questions from journalists during a press briefing held in a hybrid mode (19 June, 10 am, room 17 of the Palais de l’Europe and online).
To participate, journalists are invited to register in advance. The link to the online briefing and the annual report under embargo will be provided upon request.
