Human rights ambassadors are people operating in different regions all over Estonia who care about the sense of security of their community and respect the equal human dignity of every person. In order to better integrate the ambassadors, existing basic training will be expanded and complemented, and joint events and meetings will be held. To empower the ambassadors, a toolbox will be developed, which every ambassador can use to raise awareness of human rights. In order to achieve a wider regional coverage, the network of ambassadors will be expanded and a programme will be developed to create new ambassadors. In order to raise awareness of human rights, the ambassadors organise activities in various regions of Estonia and keep the EHRC team informed of the human rights related concerns and joys, challenges and opportunities of the people in the community.
