10th March 2025: Led by Dr Nasar Meer and conducted by the Universities of Glasgow, Strathclyde, and Edinburgh Napier finds 35% of Scotland’s minority ethnic communities faced discrimination in the past two years, with employment the biggest concern.
Around one-third (35%) of people in Scotland’s Black, Asian, and visible minority ethnic communities say they have faced discrimination within the past two years, finds a new survey led by the University of Glasgow.
The survey, undertaken as part of the Health-Justice Nexus project with polling company Survation, shows that experiences of racial discrimination have not decreased over the last decade, when placed alongside earlier studies, and that confidence in anti-discrimination efforts has continued to decline.
