Qualitative Info


No. There has not been a thourough evaluation of the effectiveness of the national implementation of the EU Anti-discrimination Directives so far. ECRI in its 4th report on Austria recommends the Austrian government to evaluate its policies in the field of education in regard to reducing inequalities for non-Austrian children. The Ombuds for Equal Treatment and NGOs have been regularly pointing at deficits in the implementation of the EU AD Directives in their statements to government proposals aiming at amending equal treatment legislation in force. Those recommendations have been based on practical experiences with legislation and the identification of deificits and barriers in this regard.
