About ENNHRI’s and NHRIs’ rule of law reporting

NHRIs are essential to upholding human rights, democracy and rule of law. Their independent reporting helps assess in-country rule of law situations and both national and regional actors to tackle related challenges.

Since 2020, ENNHRI has compiled NHRIs’ insights into a common report analysing Europe-wide rule of law trends. Based on this, recommendations are issued to national and regional actors. NHRI reports contribute to various regional consultations, such as the European Commission’s Rule of Law Mechanism and Enlargement Package.
