”As the survey is one of the first to include all grounds of discrimination, which is still very rare, it represents a milestone in the field.”
– Tobias Hübinette
Our campaign on horizontal principles currently focuses on equality data.
The coordination organisations in Stockholm County are the first in Sweden to include all seven grounds of discrimination in a survey sent to participants and the collection is in full swing.
We have therefore asked three quick questions to Tobias Hübinette, the project's co-investigator in equality data.
1. Why is it interesting to collect equality data on the target group in need of coordinated support?
- This is because the target group is heterogeneous and includes subgroups with specific needs.
2. What long-term impact do you hope the study will have?
- Ideally, the survey will continue to be used in other contexts and locations and even be institutionalised.
3. How does the Lumena survey contribute to the field of equality data research?
- As the survey is one of the first to include all grounds of discrimination, which is still very rare, it represents a milestone in the field.
