National parliaments as guarantors of human rights in Europe ()
Over nearly 70 years, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has been inspiring parliamentarians to make use of their democratic mandates to foster a pervasive culture of respect for human rights within a democracy underpinned by the rule of law.
As legislators and representatives of European citizens, parliamentarians have a responsibility, shared with the executive and judicial branches of their states to prevent and denounce human rights violations. They can do this by ensuring that international human rights norms are effectively implemented, norms which their countries have voluntarily signed up to, particularly those enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights.
The purpose of this handbook is to equip parliamentarians from all over Europe to fulfil their responsibilities and seize opportunities to protect and implement human rights. For this purpose, the handbook reviews the structures, functions and working methods that allow parliaments to verify most effectively the compatibility of legislation, including draft legislation, andadministrative practices in their countries with European human rights standards. These emanate from the Convention but also from the case law of the Strasbourg Court, and the work of other Council of Europe bodies. As an inspiration, the handbook includes examples of best practices from a number of European parliaments.

Over nearly 70 years, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe has been inspiring parliamentarians to make use of their democratic mandates to foster a pervasive culture of respect for human rights within a democracy underpinned by the rule of law.
As legislators and representatives of European citizens, parliamentarians have a responsibility, shared with the executive and judicial branches of their states to prevent and denounce human rights violations. They can do this by ensuring that international human rights norms are effectively implemented, norms which their countries have voluntarily signed up to, particularly those enshrined in the European Convention on Human Rights.
The purpose of this handbook is to equip parliamentarians from all over Europe to fulfil their responsibilities and seize opportunities to protect and implement human rights. For this purpose, the handbook reviews the structures, functions and working methods that allow parliaments to verify most effectively the compatibility of legislation, including draft legislation, andadministrative practices in their countries with European human rights standards. These emanate from the Convention but also from the case law of the Strasbourg Court, and the work of other Council of Europe bodies. As an inspiration, the handbook includes examples of best practices from a number of European parliaments.
