Who we are

The Europe in Law Association (ELA) is a human rights non-governmental organization founded by a group of Armenian lawyers on 31 January 2011.

The ELA’s mission is to elucidate, disseminate and strengthen the core European values of liberty, human dignity, responsibility, and universality legalized into the fundamental goals of human rights and fundamental freedoms, democracy, and rule of law.

Our aim is to support the spreading of these values among the bodies of public administration and local self-government, the judiciary, the wider jurist community, the civil society, and the larger public

ELA’s capacity-building efforts aim to develop favourable conditions for individuals to build and enhance their knowledge of...

Another successful example is the coalition of 11...

Legal Advice and Assistance

The provision of legal advice and assistance has been and will continue to be one of the essential means whereby the Europe in Law fulfills its mission in Armenia and wider Europe. One important area in which ELA’s legal assistance has turned useful is the rights of the media and their workers. While co-operating with several media, ELA has assisted...
