The EU-CHina Human rights network

In 2009, the Irish Centre for Human Rights, NUI Galway launched the activities of the new EU-China Human Rights Network.

The EU-funded project provides a grant of 1.5 million euro to the Irish Centre for Human Rights to lead the organisation of the EU-China Human Rights Seminar process which brings together Chinese and European academics, NGOs and government officials on a regular basis to analyse human rights practices and developments in both regions. The project will run until September 2012.

The overall objective of the EU-China Human Rights Network, which closely mirrors the 2002-2004 EU-funded Human Rights Network also led by the Irish Centre for Human Rights, is to strengthen the realisation of human rights in China and to support China in its efforts to align its human rights policy with international norms. As was the case during the lifetime of the previous project, the Irish Centre for Human Rights will cooperate closely with the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in implementing all project activities.
