Sous-commission Droits de l'homme (DROI) - Parlement européen

On 25 October, the Subcommittee on Human Rights, in association with the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, will hold a hearing on tackling the root causes of migration, the externalisation of the EU's migration policy and the treatment of refugees and migrants in partner countries in North Africa.

Upholding the values of respect for human rights and international law in the EU external and extraterritorial actions and cooperation in the area of migration has been a priority of the European Parliament for many years. In April 2023, Parliament approved its position on the New Pact on Migration and Asylum. Members will discuss with experts concrete ways to support an inclusive vision of human rights into the EU approach on migration.

This study addresses cross-border restitution claims to looted art, considering Nazi-looted art and colonial takings, but also more recent cultural losses resulting from illicit trafficking. Although these categories differ considerably, commonalties exist. The study highlights blind spots in the legal and policy frameworks and formulates recommendations on how these could be bridged. This study was commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the JURI Committee.

European Union Election Observation Missions represent a highly visible demonstration of the EU’s commitment in supporting democratisation and respect for human rights. On Monday 9 October, the Subcommittee on Human Rights will hold a workshop with two invited election experts to discuss the increasing trend of legitimising elections which are not conducted in a free and fair manner.
Mr Armin RABITSCH will present his study, commissioned by the Subcommittee, on the possibilities of including electoral conditionality in the EU's relations with third countries. Ms Meaghan FITZGERALD from OSCE/ODHIR will share ODIHR's experience on the implementation of the organisation's standing invitation to observe the elections in its participating states.

The workshop will be held from 17:00-18:00 in room SPAAK 5B001 and will be streamed live.
