If you have been a victim of Islamophobia, speak to us in confidence.
our work against islamophobia will continue
The IRU is confident our successful work to challenge Islamophobia in the UK will continue after the government’s appointment of the British Muslim Trust (BMT) as the new reporting partner to monitor and tackle anti-Muslim hatred in the UK.
why the term islamophobia is better for us
The recent claim that the term Islamophobia is not fit for purpose and that the term anti-Muslim hatred is better to describe Islamophobia in the UK, overlooks many different forms of prejudice Muslims face in the UK today, and their root cause.
