Types of Discrimination
Age discrimination
Ageism or age discrimination is discrimination and stereotyping based on the grounds of someone's age.] It is a set of beliefs, norms, and values which used to justify discrimination and/or subordination based on someone's age. Ageism is most often directed towards old people, or adolescents and children.
Caste discrimination
According toUNICEF[->0] and Human Rights Watch[->1], caste[->2] discrimination affects an estimated 250 million people worldwide.[14][15][16] Discrimination based on caste, as perceived by UNICEF[->3], is prevalent mainly in parts of Asia[->4] (India[->5], Sri Lanka[->6], Bangladesh[->7], Nepal[->8], Japan[->9]) and Africa[->10].[14] Currently, there are an estimated 160 million Dalits or Scheduled Castes[->11](formerly known as "untouchables") in India.[17[->12]][->13][18] In India the Ambedkar controversial cartoon issue rocked the parliament in May 2012 since it symbolized discrimination against castes.
