European Handbook on Equality Data revsion 2016

The European Handbook on Equality Data was published in 2007 as part of the action taken to support EU Member States to implement EU anti-discrimination legislation and to achieve progress towards equality. The objectives of this 2016 revision of the European handbook on equality data remain the same as in the version published in 2007: i. to analyse why and what kind of data should be gathered in relation to equality and discrimination (this data is called ‘equality data’ in this Handbook), and ii. to show how that data can be collected, and to issue recommendations in that regard.
