Meerdere vormen van discriminatie tegelijkertijd verminderen: hoe doe je dat?

Discriminatie gebeurt vaak op meerdere gronden tegelijkertijd. Deze haken ook weer in elkaar en zorgen daardoor voor specifieke vormen van discriminatie. Bijvoorbeeld door combinaties van afkomst, religie en gender. In 2018 bracht KIS daarom een rapport uit: Meerdere vliegen in een klap. Dat ging over het aanpakken van meerdere vormen van discriminatie tegelijkertijd. In dit artikel lees je drie nieuwe inzichten anno 2025 vanuit wetenschappelijk onderzoek. Dit is in het bijzonder relevant voor mensen die aanpakken en beleid maken tegen discriminatie.
