The police analysed the functioning of an internet hotline to report hate crimes and proposed changes to be implemented in 2018.

The government-run and Norwegian funded Campaign Against Racism and Hate Violence has produced several methodological guidance documents for police on identification of and response to hate crimes and dealing with victims of hate crimes. Furthermore, the campaign has trained 257 police officers, spokespersons and municipal police officers on hate crimes by the civil society group In IUSTITIA.
