‘All Europeans, not only minority populations, tend to lack awareness of their rights.’ This was the broad assessment offered by the European Commission in 2014 concerning the application of the two anti-discrimination Directives that the European Union (EU) adopted in 2000.1 More specifically, though, looking at the equality jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), individuals in Europe seem to be much more aware of the justiciability of discrimination based on gender or age than they are of the legal provisions available when religious or racial discrimination occurs. Since the Employment Equality Directive (EED) and the Racial Equality Directive (RED) entered into force (offering protection from discrimination based on religion or belief, disability, age and sexual orientation) the CJEU has decided more than thirty cases of discrimination on the grounds of age, six on disability, four on sexual orientation, none on religion, and only a few on racial discrimination.
