Video… Preventing and combatting hate crime, including criminalised hate speech, in focus of a conference in Strasbourg (Council of Europe)

Among the main subjects of discussion at the Conference on Preventing and Combating Hate Crime, which will take place in Strasbourg from June 19–20, are criminalizing extreme kinds of hate speech, assisting victims, guaranteeing police-prosecutor cooperation, and improving the criminal justice system. Given the recent surge in hate crime reports, Europe urgently needs to take coordinated, tangible steps to address the underlying biases and causes of hate crimes in order to better investigate and prosecute hate crimes.
