EU Anti-racism Action Plan (2020-2025)
EU Anti-racism Action Plan is an action plan by the European Union which will be carried out from 2020 through 2025. The plan was announced on 17 June 2020 by president of EU, Ursula von der Leyen, shortly after the shooting of George Floyd and massive protests of 2020 across the United States and worldwide. Every year a European Anti-Racism Summit will be held. EU Anti-racism Action Plan funding is available under Next Generation EU recovery plan. Plan 
The goal of EU Anti-racism Action Plan is to encourage EU countries of implementing national action plans against racism and racial discrimination. In March 2021 the European Commission established a member state sub-group of experts which developed the general guidelines necessary to create national action plans against racism and racial discrimination. The guidelines are intended to serve as a framework for Member States to facilitate the process of developing and implementing national action plans. The guidelines were released in March 2022.
