Kurdish Human Rights Project
Description
The KHRP is a registered charity. It is committed to the protection of the human rights of all persons within the
"For more than a decade after the military coup, governments in Turkey committed to the gravest of human rights while blandly denying that the violations were taking place. By pioneering the use of the personal petition to the European Court of Human Rights in Turkey KHRP helped to make those violations a matter of record in the form of court judgments. This has added valuable leverage in the continuing struggle to bring abuses such as 'disappearance', forced displacement, torture and repression of free speech to an end."
"As someone who had the privilege of playing a small part in the setting up of the Kurdish Human Rights Project, I have watched with admiration the way in which it has gained in stature and authority over the years. KHRP has made a real difference to the lives of many individuals and through its ground-breaking work in the European Court of Human Rights and elsewhere it has brought about policy change in some of the most intractable situations on earth. I congratulate them on their tenth anniversary and hope that their important work promoting human rights will continue for as long as needed."
