    Civil society organisations struggle to maintain an environment safe from threats and attacks. FRA’s sixth annual update on civic space explores the challenges for organisations across the EU. While there has been significant development since FRA began monitoring the situation in 2018, civil society organisations remain under immense pressure. Abusive lawsuits and attacks against those involved in migrant search and rescue at sea are just some of the challenges identified. This report presents ways forward to protect civil society and human rights.

    This report proposes a framework for becoming, and functioning as, a ‘human rights city’ in the EU. It includes ‘foundations’, ‘structures’ and ‘tools’ for mayors, local administrations and grassroots organisations to reinforce fundamental rights locally. It is based on existing good practice and expert input by representatives of human rights cities in the EU, academic experts, international organisations and city networks.

    Sendo um catálogo muito moderno de direitos humanos, a Carta consagra muitos direitos que não constam de declarações de direitos mais antigas e, de facto, é, em teoria, um instrumento louvável. Aqueles que estão familiarizados com os princípios fundamentais do direito da UE, em regra, conseguem evocar rapidamente a máxima de que a Carta é sempre vinculativa para a UE e que é vinculativa para os Estados--Membros apenas quando estes «apliquem o direito da União». Mas o que significa ao certo esta expressão frequentemente citada do artigo 51.º da Carta?

The European Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) conducted European-wide research in 2009 on the contribution of memorial sites to Holocaust education and human rights education in the European Union (EU). This summary report, derived from the main report 'Discover the past for the future. The role of historical sites and museums in Holocaust education and human rights education in the EU', provides selected findings, discussion points and recommendations.
Os direitos fundamentais são os direitos e liberdades básicos que assistem a todas as pessoas na UE. Não mudam consoante a proveniência, as crenças ou o estilo de vida de cada um.
A Plataforma dos Direitos Fundamentais (PDF) é um canal da FRA para cooperação e intercâmbio de informações com as organizações da sociedade civil em matéria de direitos fundamentais na UE.
A Agência coopera com a Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), a Organização para a Segurança e Cooperação na Europa (OSCE), o Conselho da Europa e outras organizações internacionais. Esta cooperação faz parte do Regulamento de base da FRA e inclui consultas, conferências e seminários com peritos, bem como a partilha de dados e informações. A cooperação cria sinergias e otimiza recursos para evitar a duplicação de trabalho. Ajuda igualmente a garantir que o trabalho de diferentes organizações se complementa mutuamente, para que as recomendações e o aconselhamento estejam mais alinhados.

This study on data protection identifies deficiencies in the EU Member States.
