Испания

Испания регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. Испания публикует ежегодные отчеты о преступлениях на почве ненависти.

В 2019 году Испания реализовала программу БДИПЧ «Обучение сотрудников правоохранительных органов мерам борьбы с преступлениями на почве ненависти» (ОБПН), а Генеральная прокуратура создала сеть прокуроров, специализирующихся в преступлениях на почве ненависти по всей стране. Региональная программа ОБПН в Валенсии была реализована в 2016 году.

Министерство внутренних дел разработало особый протокол для правоохранительных органов, который регулирует порядок рассмотрения дел о преступлениях на почве ненависти и устанавливает отдельные права жертв преступлений на почве ненависти. В рамках министерства Национальное управление по борьбе с преступлениями на почве ненависти (ONDOD) отвечает за реализацию Плана действий по борьбе с преступлениями на почве ненависти (принят на 2019-2021 и 2022-2024 годы). В настоящее время План действий охватывает такие области, как оказание поддержки жертвам, координация действий государственных органов, гражданского общества и частного сектора, профилактика преступлений на почве ненависти, специализация полиции, обучение, повышение осведомленности и выделение необходимых кадровых ресурсов в ONDOD.

В 2023 году Испания внедрила новую национальную стратегическую основу для борьбы с расизмом и ксенофобией.
