Recommendation 23
23
Not Addressed
Publish new hate crime action plan focused on tackling intersectional abuse of Muslim women.
Recommendation
The Government should publish a new hate crime action plan with a dedicated focus on tackling the intersectional abuse of Muslim women. This plan should include mechanisms on how to increase reporting and guidance on how public services should respond to intersectional abuse, including abuse directed at Muslim women. Affected minority groups, especially those who experience intersectional abuse, including Muslim women, should be consulted on the development of the updated plan. The plan will need to ensure that support mechanisms do not inadvertently reinforce stereotypes about what it means to be a Muslim woman. (Recommendation, Paragraph 102)
