Сербия

Сербия регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. В 2018 году Генеральная прокуратура при поддержке Миссии ОБСЕ в Сербии и БДИПЧ разработала Руководство по уголовному преследованию по делам о преступлениях на почве ненависти в Республике Сербия. Была создана сеть контактных лиц, занимающихся вопросами преступлений на почве ненависти в органах прокуратуры, и при содействии Миссии ОБСЕ Судебная академия разработала и интегрировала план и программу обучения по вопросам преступлений на почве ненависти.
