VACATURE bij de HUNGARIAN HELSINKI COMMITTEE REFUGEE LAW READER (REFUGEE LAW READER PROJECT MANAGER)

Vergeef me de vreselijke lay-out. Dit is een kopie van een PDF bestand.

THE HUNGARIAN HELSINKI COMMITTEE
The Hungarian Helsinki Committee is one of the most important Hungarian human rights NGOs. The HHC monitors the enforcement in Hungary of human rights enshrined in international human rights instruments, provides legal
defence to victims of human rights abuses by state authorities and informs the public about rights violations. The HHC strives to ensure that domestic legislation guarantee the consistent implementation of human rights norms. The HHC promotes legal education and training in fields relevant to its activities, both in Hungary and abroad.
The HHC's main areas of activities are centred on protecting the rights of asylum seekers and foreigners in need of international protection, as well as monitoring the human rights performance of law enforcement agencies and the judicial system. It particularly focuses on the conditions of detention and the effective enforcement of the right to defence and equality before the law. Read more about our work at www.helsinki.hu

THE REFUGEE LAW READER
The Refugee Law Reader (www.refugeelawreader.org) is the first comprehensive on-line model curriculum for
the study of the complex and rapidly evolving field of international asylum and refugee law. As a 'living book', The
Reader reflects important developments in international and regional refugee law that have occurred since the first
online publication in April 2004.
The Reader is aimed for the use of professors, lawyers, advocates and students across a wide range of national
jurisdictions. It provides a flexible course structure that can be easily adapted to meet a range of training and
resource needs. The Reader also offers access to the complete texts of up-to-date core legal materials,
instruments, and academic commentary. In its entirety, the Refugee Law Reader is designed to provide a full
curriculum for a 48-hour course in International Refugee Law and contains over 600 documents and materials.
Due to the depth, scope and flexibility of the Reader, the project has a user base of over 23,000 refugee experts
such as policy makers, eligibility officers, academics, UNHCR officers, NGO activists, lawyers, judges and journalists
from more than 80 countries world-wide.
The Reader is currently published in English, French and Spanish and its Russian edition is scheduled to be
published in Autumn 2010. It is edited by a group of internationally renowned refuge law academics and is
managed and published by the Hungarian Helsinki Committee.
