This resource sets out the ‘next steps’ for governments that establish anti- lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) hate crime laws to support them in ensuring that those laws are applied fairly and robustly. It provides a framework that countries can use, which is based on comparative empirical evidence and international resources and highlights current practices in jurisdictions that have a mature policy on hate crime.
The resource recommends that governments look to implement the framework and acknowledges that full implementation is dependent upon numerous variables, including resources, access to expertise, and existing criminal justice infrastructures.
