EU Charter of Fundamental Rights

Symfiliosi participates in the project “EU Charter of Fundamental rights: Awareness raising and Instruments to promote a culture of Rights” (FAIR), a direct response to the solicitations enshrined in the European Commission’s 2020 “Strategy to Strengthen the Application of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights”. This strategy, launched on the 20th anniversary of the EU Charter, outlines significant progress and persistent challenges in its implementation across EU Member States.

The Commission’s strategy proposes four key actions to strengthen the application of the Charter:

• Ensure effective implementation by Member States
• Empower civil society organizations, rights defenders, and justice professionals
• Promote the use of the Charter as a guide for EU institutions
• Increase public awareness of Charter rights

The FAIR project focuses specifically on the fourth action, aiming to increase public awareness of the Charter.
