The Commission would like to invite you to take part in a brief simulation exercise by submitting to your judgment a list of harmonization requests based on actual cases. You will put yourself in the position of judges, managers of public institutions such as schools, hospitals, government or municipal services, or the directors of organization such as businesses or sports associations, who wish to satisfy the needs of their clienteles.
To ensure that you benefit fully from this exercise, we invite you to assess the requests bearing in mind all facets of harmonization practices, i.e. human rights and freedoms, the values of the host society, the notion of secularism, models of intercultural relations, and the dynamic of integration.
The outcome of the exercise will be highly enlightening for us. It is now up to you do decide.
