#LeaveNoOneBehind: European cities call for inclusive measures during COVID-19 crisis
Since the COVID-19 outbreak, fear and anxiety for contamination have led to acts of stigmatization and discrimination against people whose ethnicity, language or country were associated to the virus, in particular populations of Asian descent. At the same time, an increasing number of countries have imposed lockdowns and declared the state of emergency in order to restrict people’s movement and to slow the spread of the pandemic. Although these measures affect the daily and personal lives of many, their impact is heavier on vulnerable groups, such as refugees and migrants.
