Reykjavík City action plan on equality and human rights

Description of the action and objectives

Green Deal action

The plan outlines goals and measures to prevent discrimination and promote equal treatment in budget allocation, service delivery, and human resources. The plan therefore covers all City operations and aligns with other policies and plans the City has approved, such as the Green Plan, accessibility policy, action plan against violence, human resources policy, equal pay policy, welfare policy, sports policy, and cultural policy. In the City's human rights policy, City officials commit to upholding human rights in four main areas, where each area reflects the City's diverse roles and responsibilities: as a government authority, an employer, a service provider, and a partner. The action plan for equality and human rights sets forth 51 goals and 108 measures across these four areas to promote equality and human rights.
