Alert: Take part in a new research project for the IHRC

IHRC is launching a major new research project.  We sincerely hope that those of you who are able to participate in this project can and will do so.  It requires the completion of a questionnaire. 

The project focuses on experiences of discrimination and hostility (including hate crimes) in various settings including in public and social scenarios as well as in the media and political circles.  

Please fill in the questionnaire and encourage others to do the same.

The details are as follow:

Muslim Experiences of Hostility and Discrimination, 2010, Pilot Project.

IHRC is launching a pilot project to assess the levels of hostility and discrimination faced by Muslims, including hate crimes.  Hard copy distribution of this questionnaire in the following languages is beginning shortly: English; French; Arabic; Turkish; Dutch and Flemish.  Other languages are soon to follow.

The questionnaire is available on-line at:

Muslim Experiences of Hostility and Discrimination, 2010, Pilot Project

The results of this project will be written up and used to show levels of hostility and discrimination faced by Muslims.  This project will then be refined and hopefully repeated annually.

“And what reason have you that you should not fight in the way of Allah and of the weak among the men and the women and the children, (of) those who say: Our Lord! Cause us to go forth from this town, whose people are oppressors, and give us from Thee a guardian and give us from Thee a helper.”
Holy Qur’an: Chapter 4, Verse 75
