The Observatory for security against acts of
discrimination (OSCAD) was established to help individuals who belong to minorities enjoy their right to equality before the law and guarantee
protection against any form of discrimination.
Removing obstacles that interfere with the enjoyment of such a fundamental right, recognized by the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" as well as other European and International Conventions, is a sign of the level of civilization of a country, hence a goal that must be pursued with decision.
OSCAD is part of the Department of Public Security - Central Direction of Criminal Police. It is chaired by the Deputy Chief of Police Francesco Cirillo and is made up of prominent representatives of the National Police and the Carabinieri.
In short, OSCAD:
maintains contact with associations representing people whose interests were damaged by acts of discrimination and with other public and private agencies dedicated to combating discrimination. In particular, Oscad is in close contact with the Office for the Promotion of Equality and Removal of Discriminations based on Race or Ethnic origin (UNAR), which is within the Department for Equal Opportunities of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers. They signed a memorandum of understanding on 7 April 2011, to define their cooperation relationships in order to optimize results;
receives reports of discriminatory acts in the field of security from institutions, professional or trade associations and private individuals, in order to monitor the phenomenon of discrimination based on race or ethnic origin, religion, sexual orientation and disability.
Such reports can be sent by e-mail to the address oscad@dcpc.interno.it
or by fax to the numbers 06 465-42406 and 06 465-42407;
based on the reports received, OSCAD starts up targeted interventions at local level to be carried out by the Police or the Carabinieri;
follows up the outcome of discrimination complaints lodged with the police;
puts forward suitable measures to prevent and fight discrimination.
Always remember that reporting an act of discrimination to OSCAD under no circumstances replaces a formal complaint with the police authorities or an emergency call to 112 or 113.
