Human Rights Instruments of the Council of Europe and their Enforcement Mechanisms

The course includes the issue of protection of ethnic minorities, children and women. It also discusses the importance of striving for the elimination of racial discrimination and elaborates on the fight against human trafficking. The curriculum covers the enforcement methods of the conventions and analyses the legal significance of the activity of the non-judicial bodies.
