Supporting Human Rights and Democracy in the OPTs
The Human Rights and Democracy Strategic Programme Fund (HRD SPF) helps initiatives aiming to promote Human Rights and Democracy in the OPTs
Through this fund we supported the production of a code of conduct for Palestinian journalists.
The key objectives of the HRD SPF are:
-
to strengthen the effectiveness of the international system to promote and protect human rights
-
to improve criminal justice systems and abolish the Death Penalty
-
to ensure the equality of women, ethnic and national minorities and disabled people before the law
-
to provide support for electoral processes through effective international electoral observations missions and the implementation of their recommendations
