In diesem Fokus wird die Anwendung der Charta der Grundrechte
der Europäischen Union, die seit zehn Jahren rechtsverbindlich
ist, näher beleuchtet. Auf EU-Ebene hat sie an Außenwirkung
gewonnen und Impulse für eine neue Grundrechtekultur
gesetzt. Auf nationaler Ebene sind der Bekanntheitsgrad und die
Anwendung der Charta begrenzt. Die Gerichte nutzen die Charta in
zunehmendem Maße, was deutlich macht, welche Wirkung dieses
moderne Instrument besitzt. Von Regierungen und Parlamenten
wird sie jedoch kaum genutzt. So gibt es beispielsweise nur wenige
Anhaltspunkte dafür, dass die einzelstaatlichen Rechtsvorschriften,
mit denen EU-Recht umgesetzt wird, regelmäßig daraufhin
überprüft werden, ob sie mit der Charta im Einklang stehen.
This focus takes a closer look at the application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, which has been legally binding for 10 years. At EU level, it has gained visibility and sparked a new fundamental rights culture. At national level, awareness and use of the Charter are limited. Courts increasingly use the Charter, showing the impact of this modern instrument. But its use by governments and parliaments remains low. For instance, there is little indication of anyone regularly scrutinising national legislation that transposes EU law for compatibility with the Charter.
W niniejszym dokumencie zwraca się szczególną uwagę
na stosowanie Karty praw podstawowych Unii Europejskiej,
która jest prawnie wiążąca od 10 lat. Na szczeblu unijnym
stała się ona bardziej widoczna i zapoczątkowała nową
kulturę praw podstawowych. Na szczeblu krajowym
świadomość i stosowanie Karty są ograniczone. Sądy w coraz
większym stopniu stosują Kartę, co pokazuje znaczenie tego
nowoczesnego instrumentu. Niemniej jednak jego stosowanie
przez rządy i parlamenty pozostaje na niskim poziomie.
Przykładowo niewiele wskazuje na to, by ktokolwiek
regularnie kontrolował przepisy krajowe dokonujące
transpozycji prawa Unii pod kątem ich zgodności z Kartą.
O presente Destaque aborda mais de perto a aplicação da
Carta dos Direitos Fundamentais da União Europeia, que se
tornou juridicamente vinculativa há 10 anos. Ao nível da UE,
a Carta ganhou visibilidade e deu origem a uma nova cultura
de direitos fundamentais. No plano nacional, a sensibilização
para a Carta e a sua utilização têm sido limitadas. Os tribunais
utilizam cada vez mais a Carta, evidenciando o impacto deste
moderno instrumento. Mas a sua utilização pelos governos
e parlamentos continua a ser modesta. Por exemplo, há
poucas indicações sobre a existência ou não de pessoas
que se dedicam a examinar regularmente se as legislações
nacionais que transpõem a legislação da UE são compatíveis
com a Carta.
Ta osrednja tema podrobneje obravnava uporabo Listine
Evropske unije o temeljnih pravicah, ki je pravno zavezujoča
že 10 let. Na ravni EU je postala prepoznavnejša, spodbudila
pa je tudi novo kulturo spoštovanja temeljnih pravic. Na
nacionalni ravni sta uporaba Listine in ozaveščenost o njej
omejeni. Na sodiščih se uporaba tega sodobnega instrumenta
povečuje, kar kaže, da ima vpliv, vlade in parlamenti pa ga
še naprej uporabljajo le redko. Tako na primer skoraj nič ne
kaže na to, da kdo redno podrobno preverja, ali je nacionalna
zakonodaja za prenos prava EU skladna z Listino.
Das Jahr 2019 brachte beim Schutz der Grundrechte sowohl Fortschritte als auch Rückschritte. In ihrem Grundrechte-Bericht 2020 untersucht die FRA wichtige Entwicklungen auf diesem Gebiet und zeigt sowohl Erfolge auf als auch Bereiche, in denen es immer noch Probleme gibt. Darüber hinaus formuliert die FRA in dieser Veröffentlichung ihre Stellungnahmen zu den wichtigsten Entwicklungen in den abgedeckten Themenbereichen und gibt einen Überblick über die Informationen, die diesen Stellungnahmen zugrunde liegen. So bietet diese Veröffentlichung einen knappen, aber informativen Überblick über die größten Herausforderungen, mit denen die EU und ihre Mitgliedstaaten im Bereich der Grundrechte konfrontiert sind.

δικαιωμάτων.
The year 2019 brought both progress and setbacks in terms of fundamental rights protection. FRA’s Fundamental Rights Report 2020 reviews major developments in the field, identifying both achievements and remaining areas of concern. This publication presents FRA’s opinions on the main developments in the thematic areas covered, and a synopsis of the evidence supporting these opinions. In so doing, it provides a compact but informative overview of the main fundamental rights challenges confronting the EU and its Member States.
En el año 2019 se produjeron tanto avances como
retrocesos en materia de protección de los derechos
fundamentales. El Informe sobre los derechos

tuairimí seo. Ar an gcaoi sin, soláthraítear
forbhreathnú gairid, ach faisnéiseach, ar na
príomhdhúshláin i dtaca le cearta bunúsacha atá os
comhair an AE agus a Bhallstáit.
FRA’s Fundamental Rights Report 2020 reviews major developments in the field in 2019, identifying both achievements and areas of concern. It also presents FRA’s opinions on these developments, including a synopsis of the evidence supporting these opinions. This year’s focus chapter explores how to unlock the full potential of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.
The Coronavirus pandemic continues to interrupt everyday life in the EU in unprecedented ways. But the way it affects our societies is shifting. As governments gradually lift some of the measures put in place to contain the spread of COVID-19, new fundamental rights concerns arise: how to ensure that the rights to life and health are upheld as daily life transitions to a ‘new normal’. This Bulletin looks at declarations of states of emergency, or equivalent, and how they came under scrutiny. It considers the impact on fundamental rights in important areas of daily life, and includes a thematic focus on the processing of users’ data to help contain COVID-19, particularly by contact-tracing apps. It covers the period 21 March – 30 April 2020.
The EU Agency for Fundamental Rights has been regularly collecting data on migration since September 2015. This report focuses on the fundamental rights situation of people arriving in Member States and EU candidate countries particularly affected by large migration movements. It addresses key fundamental rights concerns between 1 January and 31 March 2020.
In recent years, thousands of girls and boys have reached Europe without their parents, and sought international protection. Many of them experienced violence, abuse and neglect in their home countries, and while in transit. They have the right to be protected in line with the provisions of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the European Convention on Human Rights, and European Union law. This report explores the challenges and good practices gathered in the implementation of such relocation programmes. Based on information FRA collected in 10 EU Member States, it aims to help national authorities to support the relocation of unaccompanied children by taking measures that are fully rights compliant and practically feasible.
Based on the lessons learned from relocation
experiences and on existing international and EU legal
standards, FRA has developed a number of practical
suggestions for the adjustment of relocation efforts to
the protection needs of unaccompanied children. This
guidance aims to be a practical tool for Member States
that wish to engage in the relocation of unaccompanied
children and in any future responsibility-sharing
mechanisms, and to gain knowledge on how this can
be done while respecting the child’s best interests.
The outbreak of COVID-19 affects people’s daily life in the 27 EU Member States. As the number of infected people in the EU territory began to mount rapidly in February and March, governments put in place a raft of measures – often introduced in a period of only a few days – in an effort to contain the spread of the virus. Many of these measures reflect how, in exceptional emergency situations, the urgent need to save lives justifies restrictions on other rights, such as the freedom of movement and of assembly. This report outlines some of the measures EU Member States have put in place to protect public health during the COVID-19 pandemic. It covers the period 1 February – 20 March 2020.
Children in migration are more vulnerable than adults, particularly when they are unaccompanied. Their vulnerability makes them more exposed to violence, exploitation and trafficking in human beings, as well as physical, psychological and sexual abuse. This report looks into challenges to the fundamental rights of children in migration throughout 2019. It pulls together the main issues identified in FRA’s Quarterly Bulletins on migration in selected EU Member States.
Council of Europe (CoE) and European Union (EU) Member States have an undeniable sovereign right to control the entry of non-nationals into their territory. While exercising border control, states have a duty to protect the fundamental rights of all people under their jurisdiction, regardless of their nationality and/or legal status. Under EU law, this includes providing access to asylum procedures.
Les États membres du Conseil de l’Europe (CdE) et de l’Union européenne (UE) jouissent du droit indéniable de contrôler souverainement l’entrée des étrangers sur leur territoire. Dans l’exercice du contrôle de leurs frontières, les États ont le devoir de protéger les droits fondamentaux de toutes les personnes qui se trouvent sous leur juridiction, indépendamment de leur nationalité et/ou de leur situation juridique. Cela englobe la fourniture d’un accès aux procédures d’asile, conformément au droit de l’UE.
