Research on equal treatment

The Danish Institute for Human Rights has an especially important role to play regarding equal treatment, where the Institute receives earmarked funds.

A research effort will represent an addition to the comprehensive analytical work which is already being carried out in the field of equal treatment by the Institute.

This provides the opportunity to conduct more in-depth investigations than would be allowed by analyses alone. Where analyses exclusively seek to cast light on very specific issues, research additionally provides the opportunity to explore overriding problems.

Research projects

The project examines the relationship between equal treatment and religion in relation to discrimination and restrictions on freedom of religion or belief on the basis of the principle of equal treatment.
