Material is prepared in the framework of the LCHR project "Human Rights in Latvia - past, present, future". The project is financially supported by the Society Integration Fund from state funds allocated to the Ministry of Culture.
We congratulate all LCHR current and former staff, members, board members, volunteers, fellows, and all supporters, who have participated and supported our work throughout these years promoting human rights in Latvia.
From January to June 2023, as part of the project “On the way to a more tolerant society: awareness, education, support and cooperation”, several informative seminars were organised, informing a total of 221 persons (representing various target groups) about recognizing and reporting discrimination, hate speech and hate crimes.
