About the Council The International Council on Human Rights Policy was established in 1998 following an international consultation that started after the 1993 World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna. It conducts practical research into problems and dilemmas that confront organisations working in the field of human rights. The ICHRP starts from the principle that successful policy approaches will accommodate the diversity of human experience. It co-operates with all that share its human rights objectives, including voluntary and private bodies, national governments and international agencies. The ICHRP research agenda is set by the Executive Board. Members of the International Council meet annually to advise on that agenda. Members help to make sure that the ICHRP programme reflects the diversity of disciplines, regional perspectives, country expertise and specialisations that are essential to maintain the quality of its research. To implement the programme, the Council employs a staffed Secretariat based in Geneva. Its task is to ensure that projects are well-designed and wellmanaged and that research findings are brought to the attention of relevant authorities and those who have a direct interest in the policy areas concerned. The ICHRP is independent, international in its membership and participatory in its approach. It is registered as a non-profit foundation under Swiss law.
