Listina základních práv EU
Highlights
- Report / Paper / Summary8December2025This report examines how human rights impact assessments (HRIAs) are built into lawmaking across the EU and its Member States. It highlights that, although progress has been made, the use of HRIAs remains uneven and often superficial. In many EU countries, the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights is frequently overlooked. The report identifies insufficient consultation with external experts, limited stakeholder participation and a lack of evaluation once laws are in force. To address these gaps, it offers practical recommendations for more systematic, inclusive and evidence-based HRIAs that strengthen human rights protection and ensure better, more accountable legislation throughout the EU.

- Fundamental Rights Report11June2020This 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.
- Country sheets22March2019Listina základních práv Evropské unie je zákonem o lidských právech v EU. Obsahuje 50 článků, které popisují základní práva a zásady, po nichž následují 4 články s obecnými ustanoveními. Členské státy mají povinnost respektovat práva a dodržovat zásady Listiny vždy, když jednají v rámci závazného práva EU. Tam, kde jsou ustanovení Listiny dostatečně přesná a bezpodmínečná, mohou mít přímý účinek na vnitrostátní úrovni – například ve vnitrostátních soudních síních. Ustanovení Listiny, která jsou „zásadami“, se lze dovolávat pouze u soudu, pokud jsou prováděna legislativními nebo výkonnými akty.
