The Institute pays special attention to the legal protection of Hungarian communities living outside the borders of Hungary, and intends to support all initiatives, which have the aim to provide efficient and professional protection to those minority Hungarians whose human- and minority rights have been violated. The Institute ensures such legal protection within the framework of an effective, and transparent cooperation between lawyers working in neighbouring countries, as well as in Hungary, and other EU member states. To this end, the Institute provides financial support for those legal counsels, lawyers, attorneys, law offices and civil organizations who are engaged in minority protection. On one hand, lawyers can apply for our support in carrying out legal representation in specific cases before domestic – or international courts. On the other hand, the Institute commissions law offices operating in countries neighbouring Hungary to maintain permanent legal aid services addressing human- and minority rights violations. A comprehensive list of these permanent legal aid services can be viewed below:
