For the first time the Police Sector, the Law Enforcement Sector and the Judiciary Sector of the country have been exposed to systematic training in human rights. Furthermore Media and Civil Society Organizations have been targeted, including the crucial group of university students. The project so far reached more than 30 000 individuals in awareness and training activities and worked actively to reach out to the broader community through events, publication of books, newsletters and more."
