I call on National Human Rights Institutions and Ombudspersons to be ambassadors for the European Convention on Human Rights and the European Court of Human Rights: assist your governments to ensure that the political declaration expected in May will not do harm and, at best, will constitute a timely affirmation of the importance of the Convention and of the work of the Court.

With @coe Steering Cttee on #HumanRights, I raised concern over the contagion of attacks on the independence & effectiveness of some of Europe's #NHRIs & Ombuds institutions. As pillars of our democratic architecture, they protect human well-being, often in brave & innovative ways.

My message at the #ENNHRI's high-level #partnerships event: United in our pursuit of #HumanRights, we can counter the threats to the protection system's very survival.

I pledge to deepen engagement and support for #NHRIs and to speak up for them.

I urge everyone to intensify their efforts to stand up for #civilsociety.

We must act together to make a difference for the people we serve.

With #humanrights, democracy & the rule of law increasingly under attack in #Europe, independent & effective #Ombuds and #NHRIs have a key role to play as guardians of our values. At conference organised by Council of Europe today, I assured them of my firm support & cooperation.

RT by @dreynders: Delighted to have Commissioner @dreynders open our Leadership Forum today.
He stressed #NHRIs as vital @EU_Commission partners to promote & protect #RuleOfLaw and fundamental rights in #Europe.
The EU will continue supporting NHRIs and ENNHRI as we tackle new challenges together.

#TENNHRI – time to reflect & continue addressing #humanrights challenges in #Europe. Nat'l human rights institutions #NHRIs protect rights incl. in times of crisis & push new frontiers. @coe states should live up to their commitments to have independent & effective NHRIs.

Good exchange with ENNHRI leadership today.
Independent and effective national human rights structures #NHRIs are close partners of my office and play a key role in addressing #HumanRights backsliding and ensuring the preservation of the values of the #CouncilOfEurope @coe.

RT @ennhri: For the 4th year running, #NHRIs have reported on the #RuleOfLaw in the #EU 🇪🇺⚖️.

Our new report collects their accounts & outlines challenges and trends. It also recommends how governments and #EU policymakers can tackle the issues at hand.

#NHRIs, #EqualityBodies & #Ombuds play a key role in #safeguarding human rights in AI systems.

RT @Ganhri1: An important role that many #NHRIs have is to address complaints of #HumanRights violations.
They are more accessible and more flexible than the courts, which makes it easier for people to seek justice.
Here is what NHRIs do👇

#EqualityBodies, #Ombuds and #NHRIs play a key role in addressing the impacts of artificial intelligence on #HumanRights. They should be involved in all processes related to #AI and its regulation, esp. standards enforcement and supervision at national level.👇
