Vulnerability in the context of human rights – Policy brief

Four and a half years ago, the research project ‘Vulnerability in the context of human rights’ set out to explore the usage of the concept of vulnerability in the context of human rights and to analyse the relationship of the concept to the rights of equality and non-discrimination. As one of several outputs of the project we would like to present a policy brief, which contains the main important starting points and objectives of the research and gives an overview of the main conclusions of the project. Most importantly, the policy brief presents recommendations for policy makers, activists, researchers, lawyers or other legal practitioners we developed on basis of our research.
