A/HRC/36/60 administration would do away with the positive measures that had been undertaken, as pointed out by the Working Group following its country visit in January 2016. In conclusion, Mr. Hansford suggested that the Working Group consider adopting among its recommendations the goal of cutting Black incarceration in half by the end of the Decade, declaring mass incarceration a crime against humanity and demanding reparations for mass incarceration. 34. Domenica Ghidei Biidu, of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance, described the Commission’s work in combating racial discrimination in Europe through its periodic country reporting. In those reports it had provided a number of recommendations to countries in the region, including on racial profiling and the use of disproportionate force by police; addressing negative racial stereotypes faced by people of African descent; racism in sports; hate speech, including hate speech on the Internet; police violence; racist and xenophobic speech by politicians; racist violence towards migrants and asylum seekers; and discrimination in education, housing, health and employment. 35. During the interactive session Mr. Balcerzak asked the panellists how the Working Group could enhance cooperation with organizations such as the Commission and enhance its outreach with civil society. Ms. Fanon Mendes-France asked why the Commission did not use the term Afrophobia. In response, Mr. Hansford suggested focused recommendations and greater engagement with State actors and civil society. Ms. Ghidei Biidu mentioned concerns over whether the term Afrophobia fully encapsulated the lived experiences of the people it attempted to encompass. The representative of the European Union outlined steps that must be taken to prevent discrimination in the criminal justice system and to prevent discrimination in arrests and sentencing, and expressed keen interest in multilateral dialogue to discuss measures that could be taken to eliminate discrimination. The representative of Brazil asked the panellists about ways to address structural racism in police forces in an effective manner. Mr. Hansford responded by recommending that criminal charges be brought and financial penalties imposed for racial discrimination, whether practised by individuals or private or public entities; such penalties should be available at the federal and state levels. Several civil society representatives from different parts of the world provided examples of racial discrimination and violence faced by people of African descent in the criminal justice system and by agents of law enforcement. 36. The fifth panel discussion focused on the topic of Sustainable Development Goal 3 on ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being. Mr. Balcerzak stated that the health problems and concerns of people of African descent ranged from the medical needs of children and youth of African descent living in underprivileged communities to adult populations being systematically discriminated against and neglected with respect to access to modern health care, to elderly people of African descent whose dignity and human rights were often undermined by a lack of proper geriatric medicine and care. Efforts to achieve the targets of Goal 3 with reference to people of African descent should address particular areas in which the health and well-being of people of African descent were put at specific risk owing to social, cultural or even historical factors. Enslavement and colonial and postcolonial injustices as well as constant struggles with structural racism, intolerance and Afrophobia had had a direct influence on the health and well-being of people of African descent. He concluded by urging State authorities, with appropriate reference to the aims of the Decade and due regard for Goal 3, to prioritize the issues of the health care and wellbeing of people of African descent in their health policies and programmes. 37. Matilda MacAttram, Director of Black Mental Health UK, focused her presentation on mental health as both a human right and a social justice issue. While mental health was not specifically mentioned in the Sustainable Development Goals, it was one of the leading causes of morbidity. In the United Kingdom, people of African descent not only faced disproportionate rates of incarceration but, as police data had indicated, were much more likely to be referred for psychiatric evaluation while in custody. People of African descent were nine times more likely than the rest of the population to be admitted to psychiatric hospitals in England and Wales, although they did not have a higher prevalence of mental ill-health. She concluded by calling for support for banning the use of tasers, particularly in psychiatric settings. 10
