FACTSHEETS on the EU
The Fact Sheets were created in 1979 for Parliament’s first direct elections. Since then, they have been regularly reviewed and revised. They are intended to provide non specialists with a straightforward and concise overview of the European Union’s institutions and policies , and of the role that Parliament plays in their development.
The Publications Office of the European Union (Publications Office) is an interinstitutional office whose task is to publish the publications of the institutions of the European Union ( Decision N° 2009/496/EC, Euratom ). The Publications Office publishes the daily Official Journal of the European Union in 22 languages (23 when Irish is required) and produces (or co-produces) publicity for EU initiatives and activities. It publishes or co-publishes the publications in the context of the communication activities of the institutions. Moreover, the Publications Office offers a number of online services giving free access to information on EU law ( EUR-Lex ) , EU publications ( EU Bookshop ) , public procurement ( TED ) , and EU research and development ( CORDIS ) . The electronic Official Journal of the European Union will be legally valid from 1 July 2013

European Law database
This survey looks into attitudes and perceptions of Europeans towards discrimination, based on different grounds (gender, ethnic origin, religion or beliefs, age, disability, sexual orientation and gender identity). As the last Eurobarometer on this topic, from 2009, this survey also includes several questions on the impact of the crisis on the implementation of anti-discrimination policies and efforts. New questions have been added to cover important or emerging topics, such as the situation of the Roma in Europe, discrimination outside the workplace or the links between discrimination and accessibility. Perceptions on discrimination against transsexual and transgender persons are also explored for the first time.

Un petit point vert dans un océan de rouge : c’est la couleur du Rwanda sur cette mise à jour de la carte mondiale figurant le statut de la peine de mort… Pays qui, par une loi adoptée le 8 juin 2007 par l’Assemblée nationale et le 10 juillet 2007 par le Sénat, a aboli la peine capitale, y compris pour les crimes commis pendant le génocide. Le Burundi voisin pourrait bien, dans un proche avenir, suivre le même chemin puisque la révision en cours du code pénal prévoit aussi d’exclure la peine capitale pour tous les crimes. C’est un événement exceptionnel pour ces deux anciennes colonies belges meurtries par des années de guerres et de massacres, premiers pays abolitionnistes de la région. Au même moment, l’Ethiopie reprend les exécutions qu’elle avait cessées depuis 1998 et le parlement kényan vient juste de rejeter une motion déposée par l’opposition visant à abolir la peine capitale.
