Annual Report 2020

Annual Report 2020

In our strategic planning for 2019–2023, the Institute identified three key responsibilities that it would prioritise in its work. The first responsibility is to strengthen social cohesion. The second responsibility is to make human rights a positive force as humanity experiences a transformation in the very basis of its existence. The third responsibility is to bolster the human rights protection system and preserve safe spaces for civil society. The annual report will give you an insight into the range and diversity of our work.
