Венгрия
Венгрия регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. В 2012 году Главное управление национальной полиции создало специальную сеть по преступлениям на почве ненависти, которая контролирует расследование преступлений на почве ненависти. В том же году была создана рабочая группа гражданского общества по борьбе с преступлениями на почве ненависти с целью укрепления сотрудничества с полицией и разработки списка индикаторов предубеждения, которые были приняты сетью и размещены в интранете полиции. В 2018 году Министерство внутренних дел провело семинар по регистрации преступлений на почве ненависти и сбору данных. Семинар проводился совместно с БДИПЧ и Агентством ЕС по основным правам, и по его итогам был подготовлен ряд рекомендаций для соответствующих государственных органов.
