What is discrimination?
When people or groups are excluded, disadvantaged or oppressed in a society, this is called discrimination. Discrimination is based on personal characteristics that are devalued in society. People can be discriminated against for the following different reasons:
- gender
- nationality
- race and ethnicity
- religion
- disability
- chronic illness
- age
- language
- sexuality and gender identity
- socio-economic status
Discrimination can happen directly or indirectly, with or without intention. Most of the time, discrimination is also based on prejudices that exist against certain groups of people.
It is important to note that discrimination can occur through an insult BUT not every insult is discrimination!
