Human rights situation in Eritrea

Eritrea civic space is ranked as closed in the sub region. The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) continues to rank Eritrea as one of the worst jailers of journalists globally. The rights to free expression, association and peaceful assembly continue to be severely restricted, making it virtually impossible for independent human rights organisations or individual HRDs to operate in the country. 

The information is based on our latest bi-annual report that can be found under our reports to the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights.
