Молдова

Молдова регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. В 2017 году БДИПЧ и Миссия ОБСЕ в Молдове совместно организовали семинар для полиции, прокуратуры и гражданского общества по вопросам понимания и улучшения процесса регистрации преступлений на почве ненависти и сбора данных, по итогам которого был подготовлен ряд рекомендаций для соответствующих государственных органов.

По запросу Министерства юстиции Молдовы в 2016 году БДИПЧ представило "Заключение по проекту поправок к Уголовному кодексу Молдовы и Кодексу о правонарушениях, совершенных на основе предубеждений". Рекомендации БДИПЧ были в основном отражены в поправках к Уголовному кодексу, принятых парламентом Молдовы и опубликованных 3 июня 2022 года.
