Two In Three Young People Experience Some Level Of Discrimination

That's according to a new report from the ESRI

Two out of three young people experience some level of discrimination.

That's according to a new report from the ESRI which finds young men experience higher levels of discrimination than young women.

Gender is the most cited reason for discrimination at the age of 25.

75% of 17-year-olds in Ireland have experienced discrimination - dropping to 66% by the age of 25.

The research also shows young people with disabilities, those from minority ethnic backgrounds, and LGBTQ+ youth are worst affected at both ages.
