About the Organisation

ENNHRI is the European Network of National Human Rights Institutions. We bring together over 50 National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) across Europe to enhance the promotion and protection of human rights in the region. NHRIs are state-mandated bodies, independent of government, with a broad constitutional or legal mandate to promote and protect human rights at the national level. They are accredited by reference to the UN Paris Principles to ensure their independence, plurality, impartiality, and effectiveness. ENNHRI is one of four regional groups of NHRIs, which together make up GANHRI, the Global Alliance of NHRIs.

Our Permanent Secretariat, based in Brussels, supports and facilitates ENNHRI’s work, including assisting in the establishment, strengthening, and accreditation of NHRIs; facilitating capacity building and training; coordinating exchange of information and good practice among members; engaging with regional mechanisms; and intervening on legal and policy developments at a European level.
