Qualitative Info

The survey "Panel on racial and ethnic discrimination (2010): The perception of potential victims" reveals that ethnic and racial discrimination seems to be particularly acute in the areas of housing. It is important to stress that all these attitudes in the housing and employment. In housing area, the most important practical obstacles for migrants to have full access to housing are: discriminatory housing advertisements; denials by a number of real estate agencies or private house owners to rent flats to migrants or members of ethnic minorities; and additional requirements for migrants to get access to social housing.
