ODIHR observes that Kazakhstan has not reported data and information on hate crimes to ODIHR since 2018. In the absence of an official submission and statistics, ODIHR is not able to provide further observations on hate crime data collection in Kazakhstan. In addition, ODIHR observes that Kazakhstan would benefit from raising awareness and building the capacity of criminal justice officials in relation to hate crimes.
ODIHR recalls that in Ministerial Council Decision 9/09, participating States committed to periodically report reliable information and statistics on hate crime to ODIHR. 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 Kazakhstan 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 further resources and tailored capacity building assistance for police, prosecution, and judiciary.
