The Forum Against Islamophobia and Racism (FAIR) is a London-based Muslim advocacy group which campaigns against discrimination in the form of Islamophobia or racism.[1] It was established in 2001 as an independent charitable organization with the aim of monitoring media coverage of Islam and Muslims, and challenging examples of Islamophobia through dialogue with media organizations.[2][3] Since its inception, it has produced numerous publications relating to Islamophobia in the United Kingdom.[4]
