Contents/Summary

Summary
The report on Racist Violence in 15 EU Member States is based on national reports by the EUMC's National Focal Points, which includes available data for the period 2001-2004. The focus of the report is on the extent and nature of, and policy responses to, racist violence (and associated activities) in the EU15. Information is presented about official and unofficial data collection mechanisms on racist violence in each of the EU15, and the report highlights the need for improved data collection in this important area. The report also makes suggestions about how data collection on racist crime and violence might be improved in an effort to better understand the problem and effectively respond to it.
