Comments | This report contains information on the activities carried out by the Special Rapporteur since his appointment on 26 July 2002. During this period the Special Rapporteur established contacts with Governments, several regional political groups (the Group of African States, the Group of Arab States and the Group of 77), intergovernmental organizations (the European Union, the Organization of American States and the Organization of the Islamic Conference) and non-governmental organizations with a view to starting a process of consensus-building in activities to combat racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance. The report describes serious allegations of racial discrimination and xenophobia, with particular reference to Côte dIvoire and Guyana. It also draws attention to racial discrimination against Roma/Sinti/travellers, to the measures taken at the European level to counter such discrimination, and to manifestations of anti-Semitism. |
