Summary/Abstract: Democracy requires equal rights for its citizens, opportunities that society offers, equality before the law. A just society provides for its members equal chances to succeed in life, without any privileges or discriminations. Equality does not mean uniformity. People differentiate themselves by capacities, education, preferences or skills. Diversity must be accepted and respected, because it is an important factor in the development of society and culture. Unfortunately, we are living in a society characterized by inequality. Only by working together both at a European and national level, can the civil society and media make the society stronger, developing the creative potential of people belonging to different social classes, whose activity build up the media in Europe and enrich us all in this process, due to the fact that the European societies are multicultural and diverse. At some point in life, each and everyone of us may be or become a minority or a vulnerable member of society!
