The call for nominations for the “René Cassin” Human Rights Prize 2022 awarded by the Basque Government is open from 12 October to 11 November 2022.

The aim of the award is to publicly recognise and reward individuals or groups who, through their professional career, have committed themselves to the promotion, defence and dissemination of Human Rights. The name of the prize is in memory of Mr. René Cassin, who was the main inspiration for the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948 and played an essential role in the elaboration of the European Convention on Human Rights in 1950.
