The foundation of ENNHRI’s work is its Strategic Plan 2022-2025. It focuses on where we can best empower European NHRIs to protect and promote human rights and the rule of law, while supporting them to be strong and independent. By connecting NHRIs with each other and key human rights partners, we can create a vibrant network which acts in solidarity for human rights.
The plan was adopted by all members in December 2021 and resulted from a process led by ENNHRI’s Board. It includes three Core Objectives:
