The Czech Centre for Human Rights and Democracy and its partners – established human rights institutions from leading universities in Hungary, Poland and Slovakia – launched a human rights journal on current developments in V4 countries. The project is supported by the Visegrad Fund.

Visegrad Fund

The V4 Human Rights Review is an online quarterly human rights review, which consists of four thematic sections. Each section monitors and analyses the state of affairs and recent developments in democracy, rule of law and human rights protection in their respective Visegrad country (Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia). Each issue of the V4 Human Rights Review contains approximately three articles per section. The review is easily accessible and attractive not only for legal and social sciences students, academics and practitioners, but also for the general public. The first issue was published in the second half of 2019.

Furthermore, the partnering institutions and their members organised together and participated in a one-day conference on democracy, rule of law and human rights protection which took part online (here). The panels of the conference focused on the current state of affairs and recent developments in the respective Visegrad countries. In addition, the outputs of the conference have been presented in the V4 Human Rights Review (here). The project lasted until the end of 2020.
