Why support the work of the Hungarian Helsinki Committee with your 1%?

We are the lead organisation in the fight against growing xenophobia in Hungary. If you are a foreigner living in Hungary, we work directly for you as well. Your contribution will help us continue to give legal assistance to the most vulnerable people and their families.

We provide 100% civil protection.

  • We recently won the EU Civil Solidarity Prize for opposing the Hungarian Government’s use of the ‘state of danger’ as a pretext for undermining the rule of law and restricting freedoms. In five years, this is the 9th major international recognition of our work;
  • We provided free legal assistance to 903 people last year regarding cases of violations related to detention, police action and official abuse of power;
  • Our Refugee Programme provided legal assistance to 3 746 people during last year. Most of these asylum-seekers forced to flee the world’s most conflict- and terror-affected countries;
  • Since 24 February 2022, we have continuously been on duty, doing what we are good at: providing information, free legal assistance and accessible information notes for those who have to flee Ukraine. We are also responding to questions from international organizations and the media about the current situation;
  • Unique in Europe, we won 15 cases at the European Court of Human Rights in 2023.

1% from you, 100% from us!
