Human rights become real when they are respected in everyday life.
To help build a society in which human rights are effective in everyday life, including for people facing institutionalisation, discrimination, exclusion or other forms of vulnerability.
We work through monitoring, advocacy, legal intervention, strategic litigation, the development of community-based solutions and the participation of the people directly affected.
Every person has equal worth and the right to be treated with respect.
The people affected by policies and services must take a real part in evaluating and changing them.
Our findings and positions are grounded in rights, evidence and professional standards.
We work to remove barriers and unequal treatment.
Rights entail concrete obligations for authorities and service providers.
Where possible, we link individual intervention to preventing future violations.
