Azerbaijan

The Equal Rights Trust is building a civil society movement to combat discrimination, in the face of increased pressure on non-governmental organisations in the country. 
  • We have strengthened cooperation between those working with different discriminated groups, by creating three regional civil society forums and an Azerbaijani Equality Forum;
  • We have increased civil society’s knowledge of the law on discrimination, by training 170 civil society activists from across the country;
  • We are developing the first ever comprehensive report on discrimination and inequality in Azerbaijan;
  • We are supporting civil society to improve laws on discrimination and equality through advocacy and through the courts.
