Steve Wessler, ODIHR expert, explains the impact of hate crimes on targeted communities during the presentation of TAHCLE in the Croatian capital. The OSCE has long recognized the threat that hate crimes pose to regional security. Since 2003, several OSCE Ministerial Council Decisions have highlighted the importance of building law enforcement capacity to monitor and respond to this violent form of intolerance, most notably the 2009 Decision on Combating Hate Crimes which called on OSCE participating States to conduct hate crimes training with law enforcement in this area. Zagreb, 23 March 2012.
