Abstract
As the many forms of intolerance are all interrelated, this paper extends previous
research on multiple discrimination, its conceptualisation, perceptions, experiences and
proposals for anti-discrimination policies. It provides the key results of a project aimed at
developing a conceptual framework of multiple discrimination, plus some proposals for
anti-discrimination policies. Several different research strategies were applied, combining
the analysis of available data and materials produced by the research team itself. The first
approach included the analysis of eurobarometers on discrimination in the European
Union, along with nationwide surveys conducted in Spain. The primary data corresponded to both qualitative materials (gathered through focus groups and interviews
with members of Spanish NGOs, policy makers and social experts), and quantitative data
from a CAWI survey on teaching staff at Spanish universities. The diagnosis concluded
with the proposal of several anti-discrimination policies to tackle multiple discrimination
in societies where different experiences of discrimination converge.
