The key humanrights instrument at the European level, is the European Convention on HumanRights. The European Court of HumanRights oversees the implementation of the Convention across the 46... level that protect and promote humanrights include:
The European Social Charter
Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities
European Convention for the Prevention of Torture... at the Council of Europe humanrights portal.
Humanrights in this area are explored further in our Access to Justice Spotlight Project, which looks at the humanrights complaints process for rights holders in places of detention.
Additionally, humanrights in places of detention were identified as a key concern in our Strategic Plan 2024-28, so we will continue our long standing efforts on this programme of work.
