The Luxembourg government has launched its first National Action Plan against racism and discrimination, drawing directly on the 2022 LISER-CEFIS report. This report shows that people of African descent and Muslims face disproportionately high discrimination in employment, housing and education, while only 11.2% of victims file a complaint. The Action Plan acknowledges that lasting impact depends on evidence-based policymaking. It therefore calls for continued collaboration with the scientific community, including regular updates of the LISER-CEFIS study, improved data collection and systematic evaluation of measures. Robust scientific evidence is central to turning ambition into effective action.

This new LISER Policy Lab study highlights the quality and diversity of talents attracted to Luxembourg, as well as the difficulty of retaining them: fifty percent leave within five years.
