हमاरे बاरे में EKRW
Independent monitoring of human rights violations against Kurdish communities worldwide
Who We Are
Every day, somewhere in the Kurdish geography, a human rights violation occurs. A journalist is thrown into a cell. A family's home is demolished. An activist receives death threats. And most of the time, no one keeps a record.
European Kurdish Rights Watch (EKRW) exists for this reason. We systematically investigate, document, and report violations against Kurdish communities — from Turkey to Iran, from Iraq to Syria, and across the European diaspora.
Our impartiality is not a slogan — it is a methodological principle. We do not care who commits the violation — whether it is a state, an armed group, or an intra-community pressure structure. A violation is a violation. We document it.
Since the closure of the Kurdish Human Rights Project (KHRP) in 2012, there has been no single organization monitoring Kurdish rights violations across all four parts of Kurdistan with a unified methodology. EKRW was established to fill this gap.
Our Mission
EKRW rigorously investigates, documents, and reports human rights violations against Kurdish communities across all four parts of Kurdistan and the diaspora. We operate independently of all perpetrators — whether state actors, armed groups, or intra-community pressure structures.
Our Vision
A world in which all Kurds, regardless of their geography, fully enjoy their fundamental human rights and can freely express their cultural identity.
Where We Work
Kurdish communities face human rights violations across four states and the European diaspora. EKRW monitors all these regions with a unified documentation methodology, ensuring no violation is overlooked because of artificial borders.
