The “For Diversity. Against Discrimination.” information campaign is run by the European Commission, Directorate General for Employment, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities.

The campaign works to fight discrimination based on a person’s race or ethnic origin in all areas of life (which is outlawed under the Racial Equality Directive, 2000) and on age, disability, sexual orientation and religion or belief in the workplace (which is illegal thanks to the Employment Equality Directive, 2000). The campaign works in all 27 EU Member States to raise awareness of discrimination, and the legislation which exists to combat it, as well as to promote the benefits of diversity. It is funded through PROGRESS, the EU’s employment and social solidarity programme.

The International Short Film Festival in Drama acts as a campaign-partner in Greece for second year in row, by presenting selected films.
