Финляндия

Финляндия регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. Финляндия регулярно проводит виктимологические исследования для выявления количества незарегистрированных преступлений на почве ненависти. Финская полиция тесно сотрудничает с Финской лигой прав человека, Финским Красным Крестом и Финской службой поддержки жертв в целях разработки скоординированных мер по борьбе с преступлениями на почве ненависти. Эти организации, наряду с национальной полицией и другими ключевыми органами власти, образуют сеть, которой Министерство юстиции Финляндии поручило отслеживать преступления на почве ненависти в Финляндии и разрабатывать адекватные меры по предотвращению таких преступлений. Финляндия внедрила программу БДИПЧ «Обучение сотрудников правоохранительных органов мерам борьбы с преступлениями на почве ненависти» (ОБПН) в 2017 году и провела обучение более 1000 сотрудников полиции по вопросам преступлений на почве ненависти, а затем включила модули программы по преступлениям на почве ненависти в программы подготовки новых сотрудников полиции и повышения квалификации действующих сотрудников.

About 2017 Data

The police also recorded criminal forms of intolerance other than hate crimes, such as defamation, other hate speech offences and criminal discrimination. These data are reported to ODIHR but are not included in the overall figure or in the breakdown below. One hundred prosecuted and 62 sentenced cases were originally reported, these numbers also included incidents of hate speech and discrimination which were therefore removed from the totals presented here. Prosecution and sentencing numbers represent only cases flagged by the police as hate crimes.

Hate crime recorded by police

A total of 1556 hate crimes were originally reported to ODIHR. The number of crime reports was 1165, as one crime report can include several hate crimes. This number included cases of ethnic agitation, defamation and discrimination, which were removed and are not presented here. For the first time, and with the consent of the Roma community, hate crime against Roma people are included as a new category.

National developments

Based on a MoU with ODIHR, the Finnish police have been implementing the TAHCLE programme. Around 900 officers have received training on hate crimes to date. Training events have contributed to a measured increase in identification of hate motive (24 per cent in 2016 to 39 per cent in 2017).

The Ministry of Interior increased funding to address hate crime, which was identified as a priority area in the Police Strategy in 2016. The funding was used, among other things, to appoint 25 hate crime specialists to Helsinki Police Department.

Since December 2017, the Ministry of Justice has been co-ordinating an EU-funded project called Against Hate. One of the main objectives of the project is to further develop the national reporting mechanisms, especially regarding statistics on prosecution and sentencing of hate crime. The project also aims at enhancing the capacity of the police, prosecutors and judges to act against hate crime and hate speech, and to develop support services for victims of hate crime.

As part of the EU-funded project PROXIMITY, the Ministry of Justice is supporting the capacities of local authorities and especially municipal policing to prevent and identify hate crimes and other forms of intolerance.

KEY OBSERVATION

ODIHR observes that Finland has met most OSCE commitments on hate crime data collection and reporting.
