Τα εγκλήματα μίσους που υποκινούνται από τον ρατσισμό, την ξενοφοβία, τη θρησκευτική μισαλλοδοξία ή την αναπηρία ενός ατόμου, τον γενετήσιο προσανατολισμό, την ταυτότητα φύλου, την έκφραση φύλου και τα χαρακτηριστικά του φύλου αποτελούν σοβαρές εκφράσεις διακρίσεων. Εκτός από την παραβίαση των δικαιωμάτων των μεμονωμένων θυμάτων, ένα τέτοιο έγκλημα αποδυναμώνει την κοινωνική συνοχή και βλάπτει το κοινωνικό σύνολο.
This report examines why victims do not report bias-motivated incidents and the barriers that they face when reporting incidents through national crime reporting systems. By mapping existing practices that have a bearing on the victim’s experiences when reporting bias-motivated violence and harassment, it aims to provide evidence to support national efforts to encourage and facilitate reporting – and ultimately assist Member States in delivering on their duties with regard to combating hate crime.
