Consultation meetings on documents on the functioning of EU fundamental rights
Date:
In September 2023, consultation meetings were held with representatives of institutions managing European Union funds, legislators from central institutions and representatives of legal and supervisory departments of provincial offices, followed by representatives of social organisations.
During the meetings, proposals were made for template documents that will increase the level of understanding of the operation of EU fundamental rights. It is expected that this will also raise awareness of the need to respect human rights in general, including constitutional rights in the implementing institutions.
Suggestions and comments made during the meetings were considered and taken into account in further work. An electronic channel was also set up for the institutions attending the meetings to submit their written comments and ideas.
The meetings were held within the framework of the project ‘Supporting National Human Rights Institutions in Monitoring Fundamental Rights and Related Aspects of the Rule of Law’ implemented by the Office of the Commissioner for Human Rights and other project beneficiaries with the lead partner, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA), funded by the EEA and Norway Grants Fund for Regional Cooperation. The project aims to strengthen the role of national human rights bodies in the promotion and protection of fundamental rights and the rule of law in selected grantee countries by providing them with advice and institutional support and enhancing their capacity in EU law, with a particular focus on the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
