Podpora za sisteme in branilce človekovih pravic

Europe stands at a delicate moment in its history, facing a convergence of major tests. Each of them taken on their own is significant. Together, they pose profound questions about the political, economic, and societal future of the continent. This is a moment for strong commitment to put human rights at the heart of our vision for Europe’s future. It is also time to demonstrate our determination to work together to this end. Against this backdrop, the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) brought together around sixty human rights leaders and experts from across the continent to discuss elements of a human rights vision for the future and to identify opportunities for action. A full conference report will be available soon, including the specific ideas and proposals which arose from the meeting. Meanwhile, this is a summary of the conclusions.

Listina Evropske unije o temeljnih pravicah (Listina) je listina pravic EU. Za institucije EU in države članice je zavezujoča vedno, ko delujejo na področju uporabe prava EU. Vendar pa še zdaleč ni preprosto ugotoviti, ali konkretna zadeva spada na področje uporabe prava EU. Delavcem v pravni stroki je zato treba zagotavljati usposabljanje in gradivo za usposabljanje, da se jim omogoči razumevanje področja uporabe Listine, kot je določeno v njenem členu 51. Cilj tega priročnika za izvajalca usposabljanja je zagotoviti smernice tako o organizaciji kot o izvajanju takih usposabljanj na podlagi niza študij primerov, ki se bo v prihodnosti razširil.

Civil society is a key component of Europe’s fundamental rights architecture. From supporting people affected by the pandemic to helping those fleeing the war in Ukraine, civil society plays a crucial role in upholding people’s rights. In so doing, it contributes to a healthy rule of law culture. FRA’s civic space report provides an overview of the many ways in which civil society contributes to the checks and balances that underpin the rule of law.

Since September 2021, two National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) had a change in their accreditation status, one applied for accreditation and five have had a change in tasks covered by their mandates. This new 2022 update provides an overview of developments in the accreditation status and mandates of NHRIs from September 2021 to May 2022. It is a follow up of FRA’s 2020 report on ‘Strong and effective national human rights institutions – challenges, promising practices and opportunities’ and the September 2021 update. It covers the 27 EU Member States and three candidate countries (Albania, North Macedonia and Serbia).

FRA’s Fundamental Rights Report 2022 reviews major developments in the field in 2021, 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.

Ta vodič lahko pomaga mestom, ki želijo okrepiti svoja prizadevanja na področju spoštovanja človekovih pravic. Namenjen je spodbujanju lokalnih organov k sprejemanju višjih standardov človekovih pravic. Spodbudil ter krepil naj bi vzajemno učenje o človekovih in temeljnih pravicah. Ta vodič so skupaj pripravili Agencija Evropske unije za temeljne pravice (FRA), skupina mest človekovih pravic in različni strokovnjaki v EU. Vodič temelji na obetavnih praksah in izkušnjah mest, regij, strokovnjakov, mednarodnih organizacij ter mrež, ki jih je mogoče najti v poročilu agencije FRA z naslovom Human rights cities in the EU: A framework for reinforcing rights locally (Mesta človekovih pravic v EU: okvir za lokalno krepitev pravic).
