Annual Report 2021
Last year, European NHRIs again rose to the challenge of protecting and promoting human rights against the backdrop of COVID-19.
Lockdowns and other restrictions continued to force changes in the support they could give rightsholders and to their working practices. Yet they adapted.
The network’s wide-ranging achievements in these difficult circumstances – a testament to its flexibility and resilience – are captured in ENNHRI’s Annual Report 2021.
2021 highlights
Greater recognition of NHRIs at the regional level from both the EU and Council of Europe
A high-level meeting marking the adoption of the Council of Europe’s Recommendation on NHRIs
