– Provide educational material to combat unconscious biases 

– Contribute to EU anti-discrimination and anti-racism policies and action in Europe 

– Contribute to promoting the attractiveness of the EU Institution and bodies as working place for all, including people from ethnic and racial minorities 

The association adheres to European values as expressed in the Treaty of the European Union and the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, including pluralism, diversity and non-discrimination.
