Welcome on the European Association for the Defense of Human Rights (AEDH) websiteAEDH in briefThe European Association for the defense of Human Rights (AEDH) gathers together leagues and associations defending Human Rights in European Union countries. It is a partner of the FIDH, the International Federation for Human Rights. Within a Europe where important choices concern more than 500 million people, we try to influence the institutions by taking position and promoting Human Rights. We act to make fundamental rights accepted as universal, indivisible and effective for all residents of the European Union, and to make these rights elaborated by and for the citizens. We advocate: *A democratic Europe in which citizens get a real power
Our activitiesBecause the European Union should not be an exception to the common rules of humanity—those defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and those ensued from democracy and social justice—we lead actions to promote them and influence European institutions (the Commission, the Parliament and the Council). We lead actions in connection with national members of our organisation, FIDH and other organisations (trade unions, associations...) which share our values and our goals. We act through:
AEDH participates to European meetings such as the European Social Forum, ESF. * On the institutional side: -AEDH is a member at the Liaison group of the civil society of European Economic and Social Committee, EESC. -Its President, Pierre Barge, is a member of the Contact Group at the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights. -It is a member of the "Public Services" Intergroup of the European Parliament.
