Visitors of the European Village in Chisinau learned about the concept of human rights defenders

The EU-funded project “Shields for human rights defenders – Supporting Human Rights Defenders in the Republic of Moldova” was represented by the team of the Legal Resources Centre from Moldova during the Europe Day event, which took place in the Great National Assembly Square in Chisinau on 14 May 2022.

Hundreds of citizens were introduced to the concept of Human Rights Defender, learned about the project’s activities, and informed themselves from the publications produced by the experts of LRCM and implementing partners.

The guide with instructions on the rights of a detained person, developed within the project, was among the most requested publications by visitors to the LRCM’s tent in the European Village. They also solved quizzes on human rights and the European Union and were rewarded with symbolic prizes.
