Erica Howard

Erica Howard studies European Union and European human rights law, with a particular focus on discrimination law, religious freedom, and equal treatment. Much of her recent work examines how courts, especially the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU), handle cases about headscarves and religious dress worn by Muslim women in the workplace, as well as broader questions of intersectional and multiple discrimination (where more than one protected characteristic, like religion and gender, overlap).

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade without a clear upward or downward trend, with recent years (2021-2025) averaging about 5 publications per year, somewhat lower than earlier peak years like 2017 and 2019.
