Main Functions

The ECHR Knowledge Sharing Platform (ECHR-KS) is an innovative and dynamic tool designed to provide easy access to analytical and contextualised knowledge on the evolving case law of the European Court of Human Rights. Regularly updated, the platform provides in-depth case law information, categorised by Articles of the European Convention on Human Rights and transversal themes, such as environment, immigration, data protection, and more.

Designed with an intuitive and user-friendly interface, the ECHR-KS platform assists judges, legal professionals, researchers, academics, and the general public in understanding the fundamental principles and latest developments in human rights case law, empowering them with practical knowledge to advance justice and human rights protection at national level. The platform acts as a bridge between the European Court of Human Rights and domestic jurisdictions enabling a common understanding of issues related to Human Rights.

The content of the platform is maintained through thorough reviews and rigorous quality control processes, complemented by weekly updates, ensuring that users always have access to the most up-to-date and reliable information.

Initially available in the two official languages of the Council of Europe (English and French), the ECHR-KS platform has been translated into Romanian, Turkish, and Ukrainian, with plans to create more language versions of the platform in the future.
