Key findings
Based on survey data, the report finds that an estimated 15 % of all victims of violence have been or might have been subject to racially motivated violence. More male than female victims are subject to racially motivated violence. And more victims between 25-74 experience racially motivated violence compared to victims between 16-24. Less than half of the victims of racially motivated violence (39 %) reported the crime to the police. Due to few survey respondents in the category of ‘victims of racially motivated violence’, the authors highlight that estimates are subject to substantial uncertainty and should be interpreted with great care.
