HELP Guidebook on Human Rights training methodology for legal professionals now available online

As a response to the need for better harmonisation in the implementation of the Convention through relevant and effective training at the national level, the HELP Guidebook on Human Rights training methodology for legal professionals is now available online. The Guidebook was introduced to members of the HELP Network during the HELP annual Network Conference that took place in Strasbourg on 16-17 June 2016.

 

Considering the growing importance of the HELP Network and a wide use of HELP resources, the need to clarify the HELP methodology was pressing. This guidebook offers visibility and clear answers to those who still have questions on HELP, how to implement it, and how to use its resources. This Guidebook addresses how, at various stages, training on human rights can effectively contribute to a better application of the ECHR at national level.

 

An interactive version of the Guidebook is also available on the HELP e-learning platform, which you can access by creating an account on the platform, free of charge.

The HELP PROGRAMME

What is HELP?

 

The European Programme for Human Rights Education for Legal Professionals (HELP) supports the Council of Europe member states in implementing the European Convention on Human Rights (the Convention) at the national level, in accordance with the Committee of Ministers Recommendation (2004) 4, the 2010 Interlaken Declaration, the 2012 Brighton Declaration and the 2015 Brussels declaration.

This is done by enhancing the capacity of judges, lawyers and prosecutors in all 46 member states to apply the Convention in their daily work. Indeed, legal professionals, who are at the forefront of the protection of human rights, including those of victims, must benefit from high-quality training.
