Overview of the FRA's activities
The FRA helps to make fundamental rights a reality for everyone in the European Union so that they can live a free and dignified life.
How?
The FRA achieves its objectives in three ways:
- Collecting and analysing objective, reliable and comparable data on a variety of fundamental rights issues in the European Union. Based on this information, the FRA formulates advice about how to better respect the fundamental rights of those living in the European Union.
-
Networking with partner organisations and ensuring that the research carried out by the FRA is relevant to their needs, that it complements the work of other organisations and that the research findings reach the relevant actors.
-
Communicating its evidence-based advice to partner organisations and the general public and raising awareness of fundamental rights
Tasks
