SECURING JUSTICE, CHALLENGING IMPUNITY

The European Human Rights Advocacy Centre (EHRAC) is an independent human rights centre that uses international legal mechanisms to challenge serious human rights abuses in Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Ukraine, in partnership with committed local lawyers and NGOs. We aim to secure justice for victims of human rights violations and their families, and to bring about lasting systemic change in the region.
