In the framework of the joint EU-funded project, International Partnership for Human Rights (IPHR) assisted SOVA Center for Information and Analyses with the preparation of a summary of the report “Old Problems and New Alliances: Xenophobia and radical nationalism in Russia and efforts to counteract them in 2016,” which was published in March 2017.

The brief also provides overall recommendations on anti-extremist policy, countering hate crimes and protecting freedom of conscience to the Russian authorities.
