In an interview for the Czech Television, Linda Janků, one of members of the Center, presented key findings and conclusions of the Shadow Report drafted by the Center for the European Network Against Racism (ENAR).

All ENAR reports, including the one written by the Center, can be found here.

In February 2013 the Center became focused on issues related to connections between business and human rights. In the Czech-language edition of the Bulletin (2/2013), the Center started the debate on these issues with an introductory article by Tereza Dolezalova.

Helena Bončková, member of the Center, published a comment on the decision of the European Court of Human Rights in the case of Lutsenko v. Ukraine.

This decision is a crucial one as it is a first oficial opinion of the European Court of Human Rights contributing to debates relating to politization of trials of former members of "orange" government of Julia Tymoshenko.
