This manual offers a comprehensive guide to taking human rights complaints to the Organisation of Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the European Parliament and the Council of Europe. KHRP has presented its submissions to the OSCE Human Dimension Implementation Meeting in Warsaw for the past ten years on issues as diverse as tolerance and non-discrimination to national minorities; freedom of religion; refugees and displaced persons; and freedom of expression. To the present day, KHRP remains a forerunner in its use of strategic litigation via the full range of international human rights mechanisms in order to bring perpetrators of human rights abuse to justice. This manual reflects the expertise and experience amassed by the organisation during this time. 

‘Taking Human Rights Complaints to the OSCE, European Parliament and Council of Europe’ constitutes the third in a series of KHRP manuals concerned with the use of international mechanisms as a launch pad for human rights complaints. By providing information on a previously unchartered subject, this manual represents a very useful and exciting extension of KHRP’s assistance to human rights victims and their defenders, interested individuals, legal and academic persons alike.
