The mission of ECHRE is to promote formal and informal human rights education in Egypt and the Arab World as a whole by (a) focusing on the human rights education of children, youth, university students and young adults, (b) working towards the creation of a suitable institutional and legal environment for future generations of human rights advocates and defenders, (c) support existing local and regional human rights institutions and organisations with the same or similar fundamental objectives, (d) cooperating with local, regional and international scholars, activists and civil society organisations to achieve our mission, and (e) establishing strong networks between human rights educators from the Arab region and beyond.
Realising the need to adress youth and young people through informal educational methods with have established the Human Rights Club, which inter alia includes the set-up of a student and youth online radio and a discussion forum on human rights. In the context of the Human Rights Club, we employ different strategies to increase awareness to the importance human rights and human rights education. For example, we are currently creating an extensive bi-lingual human rights database on our website. The ECHRE Resource Center is an electronic gateway, serving as an access point for all people interested in learning about human rights, in particular from the Arab World. ECHRE continuously collects materials in both English and Arabic, focusing on international human rights documents, court decisions, educational/didactical materials, training guidelines, curriculas, NGO publications, reports, books and articles. The Resource Center also provides information on blogs, newsletters and forums in the field of human rights. A seperate sections contains useful audio and video materials.
