The AIRE Centre

The AIRE Centre –Advice on Individual Rights in Europe- is a specialist charity whose mission is to promote awareness of European law rights and assist marginalised individuals and those in vulnerable circumstances to assert those rights. Since 1993 the AIRE Centre has provided advice and information to more than 8000 individuals on their rights under the two European legal orders (European Union Law and the European Convention on Human Rights). We develop this function by: • Taking cases to the European Court of Human Rights • Providing legal advice to other lawyers and advisers in the voluntary sector • Providing legal advice to individuals directly • Carrying out training and drafting reports and other publications
