Organization Report
The Criminal Code provision defining hate crimes was amended to include language as a protected characteristic.
The Government adopted an "Action Plan for Implementation of the National Plan to Combat Discrimination, 2017-2019", which identifies a number of priority areas in addressing hate crimes, namely education and public awareness-raising initiatives focusing on hate crimes against national minorities and LGBTI people, and improvements to hate crime data collection.
ODIHR Recommendations
ODIHR observes that Croatia has not made public hate crime data disaggregated by bias motivation.
