ECHR

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is an international court that protects people's fundamental rights and freedoms across 47 European countries. It makes sure governments respect things like privacy, free speech, fair trials, and protection against torture. If someone believes their rights have been violated by their government, they can bring their case to the ECHR after exhausting national legal options. The court then reviews the case to ensure the country's laws and actions comply with the European Convention on Human Rights, helping to promote justice, accountability, and human dignity across member states.
