This section of our website addresses questions regarding the use of ERRC reports, newsletters, news releases, photographs, videos and other materials (ERRC Materials). If you need more information please contact: office@errc.org.
ERRC News Content
The European Roma Rights Centre regularly publishes articles in our News section which are written by activists, lawyers, academics, and journalists who may or may not be associated with the organisation. The views and opinions expressed in these articles do not necessarily reflect those of the ERRC as an institution, unless otherwise stated, and remain the intellectual property of the writers themselves.
ERRC Volunteers
The European Roma Rights Centre has an active volunteer section known as "Roma Rights Defenders". These individuals and groups engage voluntarily with ERRC projects in cooperation with staff from the organisation. Any materials, written or otherwise, or views expressed by these volunteers or volunteer groups do not represent the ERRC unless explicitly stated otherwise. Use of the ERRC's logo and branding by volunteer groups is restricted unless written permission is obtained.

All ERRC materials are subject to a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International licence. The full text of that licence is available here. Anyone is free to share and adapt our materials for non-commercial purposes provided the work is properly credited to the ERRC. You do not need to request permission before using or sharing one of the ERRC’s materials.
Use of the ERRC logo or institutional identity materials
The ERRC logo and other institutional identity materials are the intellectual property of the organisation and can not be copied from our documents or website for use elsewhere.
