Due to limited resources, Latvian Centre for Human Rights keeps the right not to respond to a complaint which obviously is not related to discrimination (see the definitions below).
Discrimination is when persons in a similar situation are treated differently (usually less favourably) without objective and reasonable justification, and the only reason for the differential treatment is that the person belongs to a particular group.
The most common grounds for discrimination are
- race/skin colour,
- ethnic origin,
- religion or other belief,
- disability,
- age,
- gender,
- sexual orientation.
The list is not exhaustive and there may be other grounds.
