(BBC) The devastating impact of Islamophobia should be taught in every school in Scotland, according to a new report.
Educational institutions should also have safe spaces for Muslims and establish dress-code policies sensitive to their needs.
The cross-party Holyrood group’s recommendations follow a 2021 public inquiry which found a rise in racism.
The Scottish government welcomed the report and said it would consider the findings carefully.
Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar, who launched the initial inquiry, said: “Many of our fellow Scottish citizens face racism and intolerance on a daily basis and are scared to leave their homes.”
