Outcomes
our AR is increasingly considered, and quoted by
policies and law makers,
we have developed strong relations with French media,
so it allows to raise awareness among people at large.
And politicians usually follows public opinion…
it completes the other part of our strategy : to regularly
bring suits for hate crimes or hate speeches affairs.

Stakes
to gather all the national cases, in spite of the
expansion of local organizations and help lines,
to use carefully quantitative statistics,
to spread more widely the cases (2010 : english
translation)
A good method but a bad example ?
