The Living History Forum surveys attitudes in society. Having an understanding of why people are intolerant, the form it takes and how geographically widespread it is, is crucial to finding ways of combating such attitudes.
The Living History Forum works closely with scolars who research into areas such as Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, hatred of Romanies and racism in Swedish society. The authority also publishes other types of reports based on various types of surveys. One example is a report on the experiences of teachers and their attitudes to teaching about the Holocaust (published August 2008).
