Resources & Advice
Unia is a knowledge and expertise centre that researches inclusion and discrimination topics and makes them accessible in various ways. We have compiled all of this into a knowledge database for you. Search by specific words or filter by policy recommendations, studies, practical tools, annual reports, election memorandum, etc.
Want to dive straight into data sources on discrimination? Check out our Equality Data Hub (only available in FR and DU).
Good to know: this is just some of the knowledge base in French and Dutch. So be sure to take a look there too.
