“Analysis of Judicial Response to Discrimination Challenges in Bosnia and Herzegovina” is the first document which offers a qualitative analysis of judgements in anti-discrimination lawsuits in Bosnia and Herzegovina and shows trends in judicial implementation of the Law on Prohibition of Discrimination. The document quotes a large number of key sections of reasons provided for the adoption of the judgements, and it may serve not only as training material for judges and lawyers, but also as guidance to judicial professionals and relevant non-governmental organisations in their work in the field of the fight against discrimination.

This Youth Progress Index (YPI) report aims to present a roadmap – a useful and practical tool – that can help all youth stakeholders, from young people and youth-led organizations to policymakers and the business community, prioritize their respective policy and investment decisions, assess where resources should be focused, and implement policies and programs that will drive faster and more sustainable progress for young people. The YPI is one of the first tools developed to explore the status of youth, independent of economic indicators. The YPI draws on reliable, relevant data to give each country a score on how effectively they meet the elements of the Social Progress Index Framework: Basic Human Needs, Foundations of Wellbeing, and Opportunity.

The Information Against Hate Crimes Toolkit (INFAHCT) is an assistance programme aimed at improving systems for monitoring and collecting data on hate crimes. INFAHCT achieves this by helping to build and strengthen the policies and capacities of national institutions and other structures to collect data on hate crimes. INFAHCT is designed and implemented by the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR) of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). The OSCE is the world’s largest regional security organization, while ODIHR is the principal OSCE institution dedicated to supporting States in implementing their commitments in the area of human rights and democracy. OSCE participating States acknowledge that hate crimes pose a threat to security and may give rise to conflict and violence on a wider scale.
