- Description
- This report analyzes data for all 50 states and the District of Columbia across six topical areas that affect women’s lives: political participation, employment and earnings, work and family, poverty and opportunity, health and well-being, and violence and safety. Within each of these areas, various indicators of well-being are explored. While the focus of the report is on the status of Black women, comparisons between Black women and other racial and ethnic groups of women (and men) are presented to contextualize the data. Basic demographic data for each state are also provided. The report concludes with recommendations to improve the status of Black women in the United States.

- Description
- 'An increasing majority of refugees live in cities and they face gender-based violence risks as a result of unmet needs and intersecting oppressions based on gender, race, sexual orientation, and disability among others. .A deeper understanding of the nuances and complexities of urban risks is essential to addressing violence and bridging the protection gaps affecting marginalized groups who have been traditionally overlooked in humanitarian response. Protecting refugees with heightened risks – women, adolescent girls, LGBTI individuals, persons with disabilities, sex workers and male survivors of sexual violence – requires innovative, tailored programming and outreach. This new reality necessitates a monumental shift in humanitarian response, requiring policy makers, donors, and practitioners to develop new programming that addresses the protection concerns of refugees in urban contexts in Quito, Ecuador: Beirut, Lebanon: Kampala, Uganda: and Delhi and India.'

- Description
- De meldingen van het Meldpunt Discriminatie Regio Amsterdam tonen aan dat anti-zwart racisme een alledaags probleem is, dat is verweven met sociale systemen en instituties. De meldingen wijzen uit dat anti-zwart racisme veel verschillende vormen aanneemt, van fysiek geweld, verbaal geweld, uitsluiten en dehumaniseren, tot tegenwerken, niet serieus nemen, vals beschuldigen, etnisch profileren en pesten. Samengevat tonen de meldingen institutioneel anti-zwart racisme aan in de regio Amsterdam.. .De meldingen laten zien dat anti-zwart racisme niet toe te schrijven is aan bepaalde mensen, maar dat juist allerlei verschillende groepen mensen zich er, bewust en onbewust, schuldig aan maken: leraren, collega’s, leidinggevenden, politieagenten, schooldirecties, uitzendbureaus, winkelmedewerkers, conducteurs, horecapersoneel, buren, weggebruikers, vrienden en kinderen. Ook de impact die incidenten op mensen hebben worden omschreven: van fysiek en mentaal trauma tot financiële schade door uitsluiting van onderwijs en de arbeidsmarkt. Wanneer melders racisme aankaarten bij instanties zoals scholen en bedrijven blijkt dat hier meestal niet adequaat op wordt gereageerd.
