The institute has a legal obligation to provide an annual account on human rights for the Danish parliament and the report serves as a key document in our counselling on human rights issues to the Danish members of parliament.
In the report, we also provide a brief insight into our research and international work and the important knowledge that we gain through cooperation projects with local National Human Rights Institutions and authorities, as well as in international fora.
Human rights are at a crossroad. On the one hand, the human-rights situation in Denmark is generally good: actually one of the best in the world. Moreover, as you can read in this report, progress is being made all the time. However, on the other hand, whether Denmark should continue to follow conventions and international agreements is being questioned as never before.
We strive to make the pdf versions of our publications etc. accessible for screen readers. If you experience any problems, please contact Digital Editor Stine Juhl Nielsen on stni@humanrights.dk
