About Centre for Civil and Political Rights
The Centre for Civil and Political Rights (CCPR Centre) envisions a world where the civil and political rights are protected, respected and fulfilled for everyone without discrimination. The Centre is an independent, non-governmental organisation seeking to realise its vision through universal ratification and implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). For this purpose, the Centre closely works with three key players needed for a real change, namely, 1) civil society, 2) national authority and 3) UN Treaty Bodies in particular the Human Rights Committee (HR Committee), the monitoring body of the ICCPR.
