ODIHR recognizes Mongolia's efforts in reporting on hate crimes to ODIHR. However, based on the available information, it observes that Mongolia does not collect data and statistics on hate crimes. In addition, ODIHR observes that Mongolia would benefit from raising the awareness and building the capacity of criminal justice officials about hate crimes.
ODIHR recalls that in the Ministerial Council Decision 9/09, participating States have committed to collecting reliable data and statistics on hate crimes as well as 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 Mongolia in meeting its relevant commitments through the provision of its comprehensive resources and tailored assistance addressing the area of hate crime recording and data collection as well as providing further resources and tailored capacity building assistance for police, prosecution, and judiciary.
