The Right to Monitor Assemblies in the OSCE Region: Experiences from the Field
The right to monitor assemblies is part of the general human right to receive and impart information. The importance of this right is increasingly recognized; in particular, its role in ensuring the respect for and protection of freedom of peaceful assembly, as well as the transparency and accountability of law enforcement agents and other state authorities.
ODIHR regularly facilitates exchanges between civil society organizations, academia and OSCE field operations on conducting assembly monitoring. This report builds on these exchanges, focusing on the work of civil society actors in particular, and makes recommendations for participating States on how to facilitate the work of assembly monitors.- Date:
