The National Commission for Human Rights and the Office of the UN Refugee Agency in Greece created a pilot Racist Violence Recording Network in collaboration with several partners and human rights organisations [1]. On October 1st, 2012, The Racist Violence Recording Network launched a "pilot program aimed at systematically recording racially motivated acts of violence. A common Racist Incident Record Form is used allowing thus to get a clear and complete view on the quantitative and qualitative trends of racist violence in Greece." [2, 3]

"The Network is open to all organisations and bodies, which come into contact with victims of racist violence because of their legal, medical, social or other support services. All organisations willing to participate in the Network are kindly invited to contact either the National Commission for Human Rights or the UN Refugee Agency in Greece." [2, 3]
