Celebrating 10 years of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights!

Check out the EU's modern human rights catalogue! The Charter celebrates this year its 10th anniversary since it became legally binding!

Since 2009, the charter served as an essential tool to turn EU citizens' rights into reality. As a result, we have advanced our laws and policies, as the EU has adopted many initiatives to protect and promote people's rights.

But now is the time to take them even further! 

With over 50 articles, the charter is a legally binding modern human rights catalgoue that enriches existing entitlements. Its profound phrasing goes beyond many consitutional texts. It can inspire law and policymakers to develop more sustainable and better legislation.
