Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

The UN World Conference, held in 2001 in Durban, South Africa, was a milestone in the history of the anti-racist resistance of Black movements and the Brazilian state, which led to national and transnational mobilization, with Brazil becoming the largest delegation of participating members and the leading voice in the anti-racist resistance at the Third World Conference against Racism, Xenophobia, Discrimination and Related Intolerance. Almost 20 years after the UN World Conference in Durban, South Africa, held in 2001, we analyzed in the context of Brazilian legislation what were the main normative law implementations of the Brazilian state to combat racism, based on the agreements signed in the declaration and the program of actions of the III World Conference against racism, xenophobia, discrimination and related intolerance.
