Since the establishment of the International Coalition, UNESCO has headed the regional scientific committees. In this role, UNESCO receives reports from cities in fulfilment of formal or informal requirements of their membership. These reports showcase the efforts of cities showcase the efforts of cities in addressing the Ten Point Plan of commitments for their respective region. UNESCO undertakes its efforts based on the information provided by the city in its report. First, it provides feedback to the cities on their efforts. The report identifies promising practices and highlights areas where additional work can be undertaken. Second, the reports from cities provide information that can be used for a variety of purposes including the publication of this report of good practices in anti-discrimination. The contents of this report reflect the information shared by Member Cities and as current Member Cities become increasingly active and new ones join the Coalition, the collection of good practices will undoubtedly expand.

The purpose of this good practices report is two-fold. First, it draws together a collection of good practices in anti-discrimination of Member Cities so that they can inspire and inform the policies and practices of other cities. Second, the report uses major themes related to the different roles and domains of cities to inform and indeed, encourage critical reflection on anti-discrimination work in these areas. Several key objectives underlie the report:

• Reflect on the different roles and capacities of cities and provide a framework to understand and assess their policies and practices;

• Present, in one publication, examples of a wide variety of good practices; Provide a useful resource on anti-discrimination for stakeholders including city staff and representatives, community organisations, researchers, as well as interested individuals and groups; • Contribute to the successful networking of cities underway through the coalition;

• Highlight the fact that even if there are challenges to engaging in anti-discrimination work, and that city representatives may feel limited, there are multiple actions that they can undertake.
