This website presents information from OSCE participating States, civil society and inter-governmental organizations about hate crime. Information is categorised by the bias motivations the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights has been mandated to report on by participating States.
Legislationline.org - an online legislative database of the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights - provides direct access to international norms and standards relating to specific human dimension issues (see list of topics on left-hand column) as well as to domestic legislation and other documents of relevance to these issues. These data and other information available from the site are intended for lawmakers across the OSCE region.
