The legal framework to combat antisemitism in the European Union

Summary

This thematic report provides a comparative overview of how these legal instruments have been complied with in the 27 EU Member States, and establishes how and to what extent the legal framework and its practical application in the different Member States provide protection against antisemitism in three main areas:

  1. Non-discrimination
  2. Hate crimes
  3. Hate speech

It identifies gaps in the existing legal protections and/or their enforcement across the EU Member States and makes recommendations on mechanisms for the provision of effective protection against acts motivated by antisemitism.
