We hope that the children in our classrooms and youth groups will eventually become Jewish leaders and we hope that thinking about disability awareness and inclusion will become a natural part of their Jewish experience. We appreciate you making time for teachers to use these lessons during February—or whenever it’s convenient for you. For additional resources, please email me at gkaplan- [email protected] or call me at 215-320-0376.

  • Equal Protection for All Victims of Hate Crime the Case of People with Disabilities
    03/2015 Equal protection for all victims of hate crime The case of people with disabilities Hate crimes violate the rights to human dignity and non-discrimination enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the European Convention of Human Rights. Nevertheless, people with disabilities often face violence, discrimination and stigmatisation every day. This paper discusses the difficulties faced by people with disabilities who become victims of hate crime, and the different legal frameworks in place to protect such victims in the EU’s Member States. It ends by listing a number of suggestions for improving the situation at both the legislative and policy levels. Key facts FRA Opinions People with disabilities face discrimination, EU and national criminal law provisions stigmatisation and isolation every day, relating to hate crime should treat all which can be a formidable barrier to their grounds equally, from racism and inclusion and participation in the community xenophobia through to disability Disability is not included in the EU’s hate The EU and its Member States should crime legislation systematically collect and publish Victims of disability hate crime are often disaggregated data on hate crime, including reluctant to report their experiences hate crime against people with disabilities If incidents of disability hate crime are Law enforcement officers should be trained reported, the bias motivation is seldom and alert for indications of bias motivation recorded, making investigation and when investigating crimes prosecution less likely Trust-building measures should be undertaken to encourage reporting by disabled victims of bias-motivated or other forms of crime Equal protection for all victims of hate crime - The case of people with disabilities “[We want] to stop them being racist against us and stop some 80 million people in total.

  • Cooperation Between European and Russian Police Forces
    Cooperation between European and Russian police forces Bachelor Thesis – European Public Administration University of Twente- Faculty of Management and Governance Author: Caralina Weltschinski First Supervisor: Dr. A.J.J. Meershoek Second Supervisor: M.R. Stienstra MSc Date: 21th of July, 2014 Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my two supervisors for all of their patience and advice. One of the best parts about writing a thesis such as this is meeting interesting people with a great insight. I want to thank them for answering my questions. I thank them for the privilege. ¡ Summary This thesis examines the police cooperation between European and Russian Police forces. Police cooperation in general is a challenging task but is it even more difficult when the involved parties are very diverse, which is applicable in this case. It is this thesis’ aim to understand the dynamic of this police cooperation, what factors are influential and why this is the case. The goal is to come up with solutions on how to make the cooperation more effective. Based on this, this thesis asks itself the following research question: Which barriers are European Police forces confronted with in cooperation with the Russian Federation and what explains these barriers? The theoretical concepts that have been investigated depicted that Liaison officers are a new form of control in favor of a proactive mentality in order to find out target categories with the help of statistical analysis. Their task is to create a security blanket abroad, in order to protect Europe. It has been tried to test these claims by conducting interviews in the Russian Federation with European Liaison officers and a representative of the European Delegation.
