Seminar: The contribution of regional Italian Ombudsman institutions to human rights implementation: a European endeavour

A seminar on "The contribution of regional Italian Ombudsman institutions to human rights implementation: a European endeavour" is organised by the Human Rights Centre of Padua University wit the the Ombudsman of the Region of Veneto, with the support of the Italian National Network of the Regional and Local Ombudspersons, on February 21 at the University of Padua, Bo Building, Room E, from 10AM to 1:30PM. 

The seminar aims to investigate the contribution that regional and local Italian Ombudspersons can provide to promoting and monitoring human rights in accordance with European and international standards.

Reports will focus on the relationship that Italian Ombudspersons have established with European and international Ombudsman and human rights institutions and networks; on the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) and the capacity-building support it can provide to ombudsman institutions in Italy; and finally on DIASPRO, a digitalized platform of data management, that allows the regional Ombudsman offices to share case information and proactively interact with partner institutions nationwide and in Europe.
