Republika Srbije je 2009. godine usvojila Zakon o zabrani diskriminacije (ZZD), koji uz druge važne delove anidiskriminacionog zakonodavnog okvira i krovnu ustavnu zaštitu ravnopravnosti, uspostavlja gotovo sveobuhvatan sistem zaštite od diskriminacije. Uprkos tome, očigledna neravnopravnost i diskriminacija opstaju u svim de-lovima života u Srbiji. Ova studija je urađena nešto pred desetogodišnjicu od usvajanja ZZD i u njoj su utvrđeni brojni nedostaci u primeni domaćeg antidis-kriminacionog zakonskog okvira.

Building upon desk-based research of existing sources and extensive field research, including focus groups, community consultation meetings and 57 one-to-one interviews, the study evaluates the effectiveness of the current legal and policy framework on equality in Serbia.
