WHAT DOES THE
EUROPEAN UNION FOR HUMAN RIGHTS?
The countries making up the EU and wishing to
join must respect human rights. They also do countries celebrate trade or
cooperation agreements with the EU.
Through its human rights policy, the EU:
• Defence civil, political, economic, social and
cultural rights
• Try to promote the rights of women, children,
minorities and displaced persons
• Opposes the death penalty, torture, human
trafficking and discrimination
• It implicates to defend universal character and
indivisible human rights cooperating working closely and actively with partner
countries, international and regional organizations and civil society.
The human rights don’t discriminate
The strategic framework and action plan on human
rights and democracy were conceived in 2012 with the aim of increasing the
effectiveness and coherence of the human rights policy of the EU as a whole.
Also in 2012, Stavros Lambrinidis was first appointed EU Special Representative
for Human Rights, with the task of increasing the effectiveness and visibility
of the foreign policy of the EU human rights
Annual
informs
EU publishes an annual report on the
implementation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and the exercise of human
rights and democracy in the world. This report evaluates the work of the EU in
the field of human rights.
Protect the fundamental rights at home
All EU institutions, the Commission, Parliament
and Council have a role in the protection of human rights. They have the aid of
the Fundamental Rights Agency, which determines and analyzes the main trends in
the field of fundamental rights.
Promote human rights worldwide
The defence of human rights is fundamental to
reducing poverty and preventing and resolving conflicts. For this reason, this
issue holds a special place in the EU's relations with other countries and
regions.
All trade agreements and cooperation with non-EU
countries contain a clause stipulating that human rights are an essential
element of the relationship. There are currently more than 120 such deals. The
EU has imposed sanctions for violating human rights in a number of countries,
including Belarus and Iran.
The EU also maintains dialogues on human rights
with more than 40 countries and organizations, such as Russia, China and the
African Union.
