Швейцария

Швейцария регулярно предоставляет БДИПЧ данные о преступлениях на почве ненависти. Уголовный кодекс Швейцарии не содержит положений о преступлениях на почве ненависти (см. ссылку на соответствующее законодательство ниже), и преступления на почве ненависти рассматриваются в рамках антидискриминационных уголовных положений. Федеральная комиссия по борьбе с расизмом совместно с ассоциацией "humanrights.ch" участвует в работе Сети консультирования жертв расизма, которая публикует ежегодные аналитические отчеты о преступлениях на почве ненависти.
