Хорватия

Хорватия регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти.

С 2006 года в Хорватии проводилась программа БДИПЧ по работе с правоохранительными органами (LEOP), за которой последовала обновленная программа «Обучение сотрудников правоохранительных органов мерам борьбы с преступлениями на почве ненависти» (ОБПН).

В 2021 году правительство приняло межведомственный "Протокол о мониторинге преступлений на почве ненависти", устанавливающий обязанности государственных органов в борьбе с преступлениями на почве ненависти и пересматривающий обязанности специальной Рабочей группы по мониторингу преступлений на почве ненависти. В 2021 году Рабочая группа приняла участие в диагностическом семинаре БДИПЧ по оценке национальных структур и сервисов поддержки жертв преступлений на почве ненависти, по итогам которого БДИПЧ подготовило ряд рекомендаций для соответствующих государственных органов. Данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти регулярно публикуются Управлением по правам человека и правам национальных меньшинств при правительстве.

About 2023 Data

    These data refer only to hate crimes pursuant to Article 87 paragraph 21 of the Criminal Code of Croatia (aggravating circumstance).

Hate crime recorded by police

Cases of public incitement to terrorism and violation of the rights of a child were excluded from the numbers presented below as they fall outside the OSCE hate crime definition.   

National developments

In March 2023, the Government of the Republic of Croatia adopted a National Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Human Rights and Suppression of Discrimination, 2023-2027, along with an accompanying Action Plan for the Protection and Promotion of Human Rights (2023) and an Action Plan for Suppression of Discrimination (2023). The Plans define and set out special goals related to the exercise of human rights and preventing discrimination in Croatia.
         
The Action Plans include activities to preserve a culture of genocide remembrance and strengthen awareness of racism, xenophobia and other forms of intolerance.                         
OHRRNM, in co-operation with the Judicial Academy, organized seminars on hate crimes and hate speech in Zagreb and Opatija. The seminars were attended by approximately 60 persons from across Croatia, including representatives of the police, the state attorney's office and the courts.

KEY OBSERVATION

ODIHR recognizes Croatia's efforts to regularly report hate crime information and data to ODIHR. However, based on the available information, it observes that Croatia's hate crime recording and statistics do not sufficiently distinguish hate crimes from other crimes. In addition, ODIHR observes that Croatia would benefit from raising awareness among and building the capacity of criminal justice officials to address hate crime.

ODIHR recalls that in Ministerial Council Decision 9/09, participating States agreed to a common hate crime definition and committed to collecting reliable data and statistics on hate crimes. To that end, throughout the recording and data collection process hate crimes must be distinguished from incitement to hatred offences and other crimes falling outside of the OSCE's hate crime definition. Participating States also committed to introducing or further developing professional training and capacity-building activities for law enforcement, prosecution, and judicial officials dealing with hate crimes.

ODIHR stands ready to support Croatia in meeting its relevant commitments through the provision of comprehensive resources and tailored assistance in the area of hate crime recording and data collection, as well as by providing further resources and tailored capacity-building assistance for police, prosecution, and judiciary.
