IREPORT.IE RACISM REPORTING CENTRES
iReport.ie Racism Reporting Centres are a growing national network of over 40 organisations committed to anti-racism and equality, where people can be supported in reporting racism through iReport.ie and when possible, receive information and/or support where to get redress and further help.
In INAR we strive, with the help of our Network, to collect the evidence of racism in Ireland, increase reporting of racist incidents and provide support to those affected.
Most of the people who experience or witness racism don’t report it as they face multiple barriers in reporting it or simply don’t know how and where to do so. Because of that, the vast majority of racist incidents in Ireland go unrecorded and unacknowledged by the state and the wider society, meaning that racism simply stays invisible and can’t be effectively addressed.
To overcome these barriers INAR developed the iReport.ie, easy to use an online reporting system which guarantees confidentiality, is written in plain English and can be filled in anonymously if the person so wishes on any device with an internet connection.
The system also allows for people to be supported in recording racist incidents by our network of iReport Reporting Centres working locally with communities most at risk of racism.
