Recommendation to eliminate racism in school

Across Europe racist incidents among young people are on the rise. According to Terry Davis, Secretary General of the Council of Europe, school is the place to make or break our efforts to stop this trend. The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) has published a Recommendation comprising a list of measures which are specific and simple to implement. The Recommendation on combating racism and racial discrimination in and through school education asks governments to review the situation of children from minority groups in the school system, and put in place policies to deal with the problems these children face. The Recommendation also proposes to establish a system to monitor and sanction racist incidents and raise awareness about the issue. Teaching staff should be trained to work in a multicultural environment and respond adequately to the needs of pupils from different backgrounds.
