The term "multiple discrimination" indicates any combination of discrimination on the grounds of gender, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation.The importance of recognising multiple discrimination lies with the fact that it takes into account the complexity of discrimination as it is experienced by some people. Some problems perceived in the field of multiple discrimination may not be due to th problems with this specific fielld but rather stem from implementation and divergences between national legal orders
