The purpose of the project is to gain insight into the obstacles and incentives for complainants in pursuing their complaints and gaining access to justice through equality bodies or similar entities and thus to assist stakeholders in the field of access to justice in discrimination cases, to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of their actions. This report aims to: -provide an overview of existing information, research and data regarding the different bodies and organisations tasked with securing access to justice in cases of discrimination in the EU Member States covered in this study; -give an insight into the perspectives and experiences of a particular group of complainants on bringing cases of discrimination and into the perspectives of equality bodies, other similar bodies and intermediary bodies on access to justice in cases of discrimination; -identify issues in relation to access to justice concerned with the procedures used in discrimination cases, the support available to complainants in discrimination cases and aspects of access to justice that go beyond the individual case.
