In many Central and Eastern European Countries human rights live a double life: although they are well protected by rules of national and international law including the European Convention on Human Rights, they are often disregarded in practice. 

There are various reasons for this which need to be addressed urgently. Certainly one of them is simply a lack of knowledge among citizens, lawyers and human rights organisations about the - in most cases relatively new - legal substance of human rights and in particular the enforcement procedures. 

In order to contribute to the dissemination of such knowledge, MOST offers seminars and courses on the European Convention on Human Rights with an emphasis on the practicalities of the system.

This homepage will be the documentation of some of our activities in the last years. MOST will still continue to work in this field, but will not up date this homepage. However, we will be happy to answer your e-mails.
