The European Centre for Minority Issues (ECMI) was founded in 1996 by the governments of Denmark, Germany and Schleswig-Holstein. It is a non-partisan and interdisciplinary institution which conducts practice-oriented research, provides information and documentation, and offers advisory services concerning minority-majority relations in Europe. The ECMI Issue Briefs discuss minority issues from different fields and perspectives, including economic inclusion, inter-ethnic relations in former Yugoslavia and institutional designs to accomodate competing group interests.
